SIUSLAW NEWS ❚ WEDNESDAY, MARCH 15, 2017 9 A Library hosting discussion on Oregon fishing, seafood today main branch of the library in the Bromley Room. This event is sponsored by Oregon Humanities and is part of the nonprofit group’s statewide “Conversation Project.” Oregonians love the wild beauty of our 363 miles of A LICE B RAUER C HRISTIAN P RESCHOOL coastline, but finding truly local seafood can be hard, even on the coast. The United States imports approximately 90 per- cent of its seafood and ships out nearly as much to the glob- al market. Why aren’t we eating more local seafood, now that pre- serving and distribution tech- nologies are the most sophisti- cated they have ever been? Why do we consider seafood more a delicacy now than it has been in the past? These questions are the focus of “Fish Tales,” the free conversation with Bright, a Let me Showcase your property.
