You will learn how local fishers uphold the values of ecological balance and sustainable aquaculture to protect this marine environment.
For those who have joined the event, clams will no longer be seen merely as a delicious dish on the table, but as a symbol carrying the culture and stories of this place. This journey is truly worth it!
