   Boston Fisheries Foundation

   Jan 2023 — Present · Boston, MA, US

   For over 400 years, the fishing industry has been an unbroken thread woven into the fabric of Boston. Seafood is forever linked to our regional identity. What started as the first colonial industry is now an industry that is under threat. The Boston Fisheries Foundation, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization, began in 2012 as an idea shared by a group of like-minded fishermen and women who started talking about the health of Boston\'s fishing industry.Our mission is to preserve, sustain and share our seafood and maritime heritage. From capturing the oral and material history of our industry, to recognizing the pioneers and future leaders, The Boston Fisheries Foundation wants to ensure that Boston remains a vital part of the seafood tapestry.The epicenter of our fishing industry is South Boston, with over 80 seafood businesses and restaurants within a 1.25 mile radius of the 100+ year-old Boston Fish Pier. With the ever changing skyline of South Boston, the Boston Fisheries Foundation strives to be the anchor to our fishing and fish distribution community.
