About the Program

Investigate the ways natural resources can move from local to global in Fishy Business!    

Communities depend on their members to be good citizens. Part of good citizenship involves understanding and managing natural resources in a sustainable manner. 

Tour our Canning Line to understand changes in food preservation, learn about how fish are adapted to their habitats, and play a game to see an example of how fisheries are managed.
