Here's the opportunity to buy direct from the boat. You will know who harvested them. You will know his boat. You'll never feel the same the next time you look out in the harbor and recognize the Ann Elizabeth.

REPOST FROM @rugged_seas “There is no better time than now to support local businesses... this includes farmers and fisherman. It’s a scary time for all of us, life has changed drastically in the last two weeks, but now is the time we all need to come together and support one another. My cousin is a lobsterman out of Portland, Maine. He has been selling fresh lobster right from his boat to try and sustain his business.... if anyone is looking for fresh lobster at a good price contact @harvester9283 “
