Diggin' for Dinner (Clam Digging 101)
Get out of your shell! We will lead an informative and hands-on workshop on clamming in our area. Learn about gear, harvesting regulations, where to go and practical how-to lessons. We'll end the event with an old-fashioned clam bake (we will provide the pre-harvested clams). You'll create and take home your own homemade and recycled clam measuring tool and yummy recipes for serving up your finds. Each attendee will need weather-appropriate clothing, shoes that can get muddy, a water bottle, a bucket and a small shovel or hand cultivator for each person wanting to harvest clams. Limited space available - register by April 9th.
