Join The Conversation: Bren Smith

BREN SMITH
Restorative Ocean Farmer
Featured on 60 Minutes and in The New Yorker

Bren Smith is on the vanguard of a major change in how we eat. 

A former fisherman, Bren now farms seaweed, oysters, mussels, clams, and scallops. He started GreenWave, Long Island Sound’s first vertical ocean farm, to help others begin their own ocean farms and to advocate for a new approach to the American diet.

Join us for a fascinating discussion with Bren about his new book, Eat Like A Fish: My Adventures As A Fisherman Turned Restorative Ocean Farmer. Copies of the book will be available for purchase. And come with your questions for the audience Q & A!
