The
GROWER

Advertising or contributing to “The Grower”

“The Grower” is the Newsletter of the Association of Scottish Shellfish Growers. It is published quarterly in March, June, September, and December. It is distributed as hard copy to all members of the Association and to Government and Policy organisations and contributors. It is also published on the Association website www.assg.org.uk and there is an extensive and highly targeted mailing list which extends its coverage to all parts of the world.

The newsletter welcomes submission of any material relevant to the interests of shellfish farmers. Articles should normally be not more than 1200 words but we are happy to publish anything from just a paragraph of 200 words to the longer item with the only requirement being that it should be of interest or concern of the shellfish farming community. We particularly welcome photos to accompany articles or just of general interest. We also welcome experience accounts from other parts of the world.
