Workshops, Experiences & Events
Seafood centered workshops, events, and experiences designed to inspire and empower fish-curious folk to learn and love your local catch
hi, I’m Trish
When I was a fishmonger, I realized a lot of people had questions about seafood, but no one was really taking the time to answer them.
So I started answering them.
And here we are!
I create workshops, events & experiences where fish-curious folk can feel empowered and inspired to ask questions, get hands-on with seafood, and try something new.
