Please join us Sunday, March 23, 2025, under shady oaks for a delicious lunch featuring fish and vegetables grown at the Mote Aquaculture Research Park (12300 Fruitville Road, Sarasota, FL 34236) through Mote's Marine & Freshwater Aquaculture Research Program, which develops innovative technologies to sustainably produce seafood that can help feed the world, and to restock depleted recreational and commercial fisheries. Mote scientists have been hard at work rearing red drum and sea vegetables for the event in our state-of-the-art sustainable saltwater aquaponics system.
All that’s left is for Chef Paul at Mattison's Catering to prepare the feast - and for you to meet us there!
After your sustainably grown and sourced meal, enjoy an exclusive, behind-the-scenes tour of our rapidly growing research park and hear directly from Mote scientists about their work advancing sustainable aquaculture technologies to feed the world, restock depleted fish populations, mitigate red tide, restore Florida's coral reef and much more!
