Can eating farmed redfish help restore the Florida coastline? Megan Sorby; Pine Island Redfish

Happy Planet Wednesday! 

Could eating farmed redfish be the answer to building coastal resilience in Florida? Founder Megan Sorby would like to think so. 

Megan and her husband co-founded Pine Island Redfish. True to its name, they grow growing the much-loved but highly protected redfish for the commercial market on Pine Island, a Florida Island with an agricultural tradition. And they are using the waste water to grow hydroponic mangroves to restore the Florida coastline.
