To reduce OceanFest's carbon footprint, FMSA is encouraging attendees to bike to the event.  The San Francisco Bicycle Coalition will provide free valet bike service and Blazing Saddles will offer attendees a 15% discount on bike rentals for the day.  In addition, OceanFest will neutralize its carbon emissions through the purchase of carbon credits with Terrapass.

"I look forward each year to OceanFest, a fun, informative and delicious outdoor fair that delivers a sustainable seafood message to thousands of visitors," says Judy Rodgers, chef and owner of San Francisco's renowned Zuni Cafe, who is participating in her fifth OceanFest. "Join me and other local chefs for seafood dishes that celebrate our ocean and the marine sanctuaries beyond the Golden Gate."             

All chefs will volunteer their culinary talents to promote the delicious and environmentally sound qualities of sustainable seafood, which is generously donated by Monterey Fish Company.

All proceeds from food, beverage and raffle sales will benefit the education and volunteer programs of the Farallones Marine Sanctuary Association.

Discover your marine sanctuaries while enjoying delicious food and drink at your front-row seat to the Blue Angels air show!

We look forward to seeing you there!
