Last year I worked on a huge post about community supported agriculture programs and their ilk. Alas, it never made it to publication, as I had a computer die, along with all my research. Maybe that was when I first heard of DukeFish and their effort to start a local community supported fisheries program. Apparently, it's gotten rolling: it's called Walking Fish. You can sign up using this form (PDF alert), and mail it in along with a check for your desired share. Seafood will come from near Beaufort, NC in Carteret County.
Beaufort is also the home of the Duke Marine Lab, and probably has more than a few DukeFish people down there. Neat how that works out. :)
Edit: story in today's Herald-Sun.
Interesting concept
Time for a trip to the coast

My friend told me about Duke Fish. Such a great idea. Hope it "catches" on more widely. (Ha ha ha!)

Officially the largest CSF in the nation now....400 shares purchased, and 75 people on a waiting list!

It sounds great; since I couldn't swing signing up, I'd love to hear how people are liking it....
