Regenerative Aquaculture: How Pine Island Redfish is Restoring Coastlines, One Fish at a Time
In this episode, we’re joined by Megan and Tom Sorby, the co-founders of Pine Island Redfish, to explore a bold new vision for aquaculture—one that’s regenerative, community-driven, and deeply rooted in place. Based in Florida, Pine Island Redfish is using land-based recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) not only to raise delicious, native redfish but also to restore coastal ecosystems through innovative mangrove planting initiatives. From turning fish waste into fertilizer to engaging local residents in hands-on conservation, Megan and Tom are proving that aquaculture can be part of the solution. Whether you're a seafood professional, sustainability advocate, or just a curious listener, this conversation will inspire you to rethink what fish farming can be.
