Welcome to the new year 2017 and our 5th season of the educational program that teaches about our delicious seafood choices with free, tasty samples provided. We began on January 9th learning about shellfish and oysters. On February 13: Learn about the Texas General Land Office Oil Spill Division’s role in keeping our seafood safe and try a unique combination of sauerkraut and fish. March 13: How do I make wise seafood choices for species not local to our area? Good information to have when enjoying a delicious tuna steak.

Remember to mark the second Monday of the month on your calendars for the rest of the spring series. We meet at the Bauer Exhibit Building at the Calhoun County Fairgrounds at 6:00 p.m.

Topics and dishes for April 10th and May 8th are still being confirmed. Stay tuned!
