Genung’s Fish Camp is now the proud sponsor of Crescent Beach Fresh, a community supported fishery that will deliver it’s first share on Saturday, March the 6th. from 9a.m. until 4p.m. The shares will be sold for $300.00 each and will entitle you to a once a month pickup for six months.
Pickups will be the first Saturday of each month here at Genungs Fish Camp in Crescent Beach. I am selling 100 shares. If you would like to participate all you have to do is send me a check for $300.00 made out to Genung’s Fish Camp and mail it to Genung’s Fish Camp, 291 Cubbedge Rd., St. Augustine fl. 32080.
I am attempting to do this so as to keep the cost as low as possible and that way you can receive more for your money. You will need to bring a cooler or insulated bag to take delivery of your product. I am not going to issue contracts or any other paperwork I hope we can all trust each other.
I have given this a lot of thought and time. I have talked with local fisherman, shrimpers, clammers, oyster folks, and any one else who would listen. We have an abundance of fresh, local seafood. Most of it is seasonal but there is always something available. I am going to bring your share to you as fresh from the water as I can. To me that is what it is all about.
Here at the fish camp I have the opportunity to eat fresh fish a few times a week and it is just wonderful. There will be many things to work out but I am sure you will be pleased with the end result. As a matter of fact I will guarantee that you will. Each month there are different products that will be available so there is no way I can tell you what you are going to receive. All I can say it that you are going to receive the best I can find.
I will only being doing business with people who harvest their product in a sustainable and environmentally safe way. I was talking with a local clammer just this morning and he has a clam farm about a half mile from my fish camp. He told me he can harvest our clams the same morning that you will pick up your share.
I am sure that many of you will have questions so please feel free to e-mail me and ask. I am very excited about the response and look forward to bringing you the best local seafood there is to offer.
Johnny
