🔥 Planning one last coastal trip this summer?

If you’re thinking about a campfire, check the local laws first. Rules about campfires near the beach are set by the State of Oregon and the local county or city government.

If fires are allowed, stick to the following:
🔥Keep it small and keep it at least 50 feet from grass, logs and other vegetation.
🔥Use local, untreated firewood, never leave your fire unattended, and please don’t burn trash, treated wood, or driftwood.
🔥When you’re ready to call it a night, drown your fire with water until it’s completely cold to the touch. Never bury a fire in the sand.

‼️And remember, campfires aren’t allowed on western snowy plover designated beaches.

A little extra care goes a long way in keeping the Oregon Coast safe and beautiful. 🌊🔥

It’s Day 8 of 10 Days of Tuna! 🐟 We love seeing fisherman owned businesses putting Oregon Albacore on the menu, especially right now, when our local albacore season is in full swing! Follow along as Chef Jason Fishel, a former commercial fisherman, demonstrates how to make the Blue Box Albacore Poke Bowl.

Blue Box Seafood Company is a fishing-family owned business sourcing seafood directly from local fishermen, including from their own commercial boat, F/V Mary Louise, out of Wi******er Bay.

Their food cart and seafood market operation feature Oregon Albacore, as well as Chinook salmon, Dungeness crab, Oregon Pink shrimp, and other locally landed seafood.

Owner Daniel Chambers puts it simply: “It is good for the local economy to promote this type of business and to teach young people where their food comes from.”

With Oregon Albacore at the peak of its season, there couldn’t be a better time to seek it out! 🐟

It’s Day 7 of 10 Days of Tuna! 🐟 Want to make a more sustainable seafood choice?

Oregon Albacore is one of the most responsibly harvested seafoods you can buy, making it a choice you can feel good about.

🎣 Oregon Albacore is rated a “Best Choice” by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch program thanks to its healthy population and highly selective hook and line fishing methods, which result in virtually no bycatch.

💚 It also earns Seafood Watch’s “Super Green” recommendation for being both environmentally responsible and exceptionally nutritious, with high levels of omega 3s and lower mercury than many larger tuna species.

🌊 The West Coast Albacore fishery, including Oregon’s troll caught fleet, has earned Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) certification. NOAA Fisheries and the Pacific Fishery Management Council also carefully manage the fishery under strict U.S. regulations. According to the latest stock assessments, the North Pacific Albacore stock is healthy, not overfished, and not subject to overfishing.

🛒 When shopping, look for labels that say “Oregon caught,” “troll caught,” or “hook and line caught.” There are over 50 local brands of canned or pouched Oregon-caught Albacore, which you can find in coastal seafood markets, grocery stores, and online. Plus, this time of year, you can buy whole fish directly from the fishermen.
