An important announcement for Shellfish Growers:

The shellfish disease found recently in hard-clams (quahogs)

Dr. Roxanne Smolowitz and Dr. Dale Leavitt will be at the Eastham
Aquaculture Training Center on Wednesday, January 16, from 12:30 p.m. -
3:30 p.m. to provide factual information about the disease, and give an
update on the most recent information and ongoing research.

A hands-on demonstration, which will assist with recognition of the
disease in the field, will follow the lecture period.
