Aquaculture Magazine published an article about Acadia Harvest, a commercial land-based, indoor fish farm, that’s partnering with the University of Maine and its Center for Cooperative Aquaculture Research on an $8 million project to raise black sea bass and California yellowtail.

“Ninety percent of our seafood today is imported. We’d like to change that. We can provide consumers with high-quality seafood that’s grown closer to home and grown to a standard of quality that they would find attractive to them,” said Acadia Harvest CEO Ed Robinson in the article.
