Part 1 of a project analyzing gender in Maine and New Hampshire’s aquaculture industry through visual storytelling. As part of her work as a 2021 Switzer fellow, Natalie Lord has launched the website, A Rising Tide?,highlighting women’s experiences as oyster producers. The Maine Monitor has partnered with Lord (who was advised by Dr. Catherine Ashcraft), the Robert and Patricia Switzer Foundation and the New Hampshire Sea Grant to republish the series that showcases the stories of four women oyster farmers and why it’s important to study women in aquaculture.
