UNE Dining Services featured in story about sustainable seafood

Sharck bites

At the University of New England, students are getting a lesson in sustainable seafood – outside of the classroom.

UNE Dining Services provider Sodexo is serving dogfish and hake in UNE Dining Halls. They are underutilized species that are similar to the fish many people are used to eating, such as cod and haddock. The initiative was featured in a story on WCSH’s “207.”

UNE was the first of 11 Sodexo institutions to partner with the Gulf of Maine Research Institute to commit to using 100% Gulf of Maine responsibly harvested white fish.
