As we move into a summer filled with seafood festivals, fish frys, and crab picking lets take a moment to appreciate Virginia’s commercial watermen and women who contribute to making Virginia Seafood first on the East Coast in seafood landings. Our commercial watermen and women work long hours and brave tough conditions, not just in the heat of the summer, but all throughout the year to provide us with fresh and local seafood year-round. To help support local watermen and women purchase Virginia seafood at your local restaurants, seafood markets, retail chain stores and you can also follow this link to our retail list on this website.
