Adrianne Johnson
Florida Representative
Adrianne Johnson grew up in Florida's panhandle. She is the granddaughter of a sailor and has always harbored a love for the ocean. In 2018, her father started Gulf Springs Sea Farm in Spring Creek, Florida. Since then, they've learned the highs and the lows of oyster farming and the strength, determination, and humility it takes to work in partnership with nature.
Adrianne currently serves as the Executive Director of the Florida Shellfish Aquaculture Association (FSAA), which represents clam and oyster farmers across the state of Florida. She works to promote Florida's emerging shellfish industry and engage in advocacy on behalf of Florida growers. Adrianne joins the ECSGA board with a background in fundraising and legislative advocacy. Her hope is to bring the unique experience of Florida farmers to the ECSGA Board and to advocate for policies that ensure all our growers thrive.
Growing up, her mom's mantra was, "the world is your oyster." Life is what we make it. Adrianne believes in it so much she got it tattooed on her arm. And now it's even more appropriate as she dedicates her career to shellfish aquaculture.
