San Diego Seafood Then & Now - recipes and stories from a history of fishing is an example of a community-driven cookbook that combines San Diego’s fishing history, top chefs & traditional family recipes, fishers, marine scientists, historians, artists and photographers, to produce a full-color hardcover book, curated by California Sea Grant. The popular book flew off the shelves and, with your help, we look forward to reprinting it in 2026.
