If you are interested in getting
involved in oyster aquaculture, there is a program that will allow
four Franklin county seafood workers to get certified free of charge.
Florida A & M University
Cooperative Extension’s Incubator/Accelerator Program in Franklin
County is looking to sponsor four individuals who would like to
attend the Wakulla Environmental Institute’s oyster aquaculture
certificate program free of charge.
The program provides oystermen and
fishermen the tools to open their own businesses by training them on
how to farm-raise oysters.
Course work covers farming methodology,
aquaculture rules and regulations, lease set up, crop management and
boater safety.
The program start date will be in
September.
If you live in Franklin County and have
worked in the seafood industry, you are eligible to apply.
To apply, contact David Walker, FAMU’s
Franklin County Incubator/Accelerator Project Coordinator at
850-228-9252.
You can also email him
at david.walker3@famu.edu.
The deadline to contact David Walker is
June the 30th.
