Fish of the Month
Calling all seafoodies!
Choosing sustainable seafood – fish that are abundant, well managed, and caught or farmed in environmentally friendly ways – is one of the easiest and most delicious actions you can take to protect the health of our waters worldwide. That’s why Shedd and Whole Foods Market proudly present our Fish of the Month initiative.
Each month Shedd and Whole Foods Market will select a new sustainable seafood to highlight. You’ll find information about that fish and recipes that you can try at home. You can also experience the Fish of the Month firsthand at Shedd by attending on-site cooking demonstrations, or by enjoying the Fish of the Month lunch special in Soundings Café.
