Geoduck Farmers transport seed by boat to the farm site then subsequently "plant" the seed into the mesh nursery tubes. These mesh tubes are installed by the crew working together to evenly space them. The Crew Lead will instruct the crew members where to place the tubes and how to most efficiently accomplish this. Geoduck Farmers will also be responsible for removal of tubes from older crops that no longer require the protection of the nursery tubes. The Crew Lead will instruct members in the process to ensure efficiency and best practices are followed.
