Penobscot East Resource Center wants everyone to know the importance of our local fisheries and community-based fisheries management.

We invite you to explore our online Learning Center, where you can learn more about community-based management, the state of our fisheries, and read the stories of those who fish for a living.

You can also find information about current and upcoming courses and workshops, and our partnerships with local schools.
