Kevin Bailey, writing in Earth Island Journal, has good news for conscientious consumers. The Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch has a long list of unsustainable shellfish choices—except for abalone from a California aquaculture company. Abalone cultivation isn’t easy and Kevin takes us through the operation’s ebbs and flows. Also read The Western Flyer, Kevin’s book about a boat with a John Steinbeck connection.
