During the meal we will have a spirited live auction featuring incredible and unique prizes, led by David Dadekian, board president of Eating with the Ecosystem and owner of Eat Drink RI. This event is more than just a dinner—As you savor each bite, you'll be supporting the important work of Eating with the Ecosystem, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting a place-based approach to sustaining New England's wild seafood. You will meet and learn from local fishers and harvesters who bring the fresh, responsibly caught seafood to our tables and engage in conversations about sustainable fishing practices and oyster aquaculture, learn about local marine ecosystems, and gain a deeper understanding of the importance of preserving our oceans and supporting local fisheries. Dress: Dazzle us with your most fishy and seafood chic attire for the chance to win a fabulous door prize!
