His connection to this work dates back to his teenage days, when he was introduced to the art of shellfish harvesting at the age of 14.<\/p>\n<p>The history of cockle harvesters in this region dates back to the dawn of the last century. However, although time has brought significant changes, the essence of their work remains the same: maintaining a natural balance that ensures the sustainability of the marine ecosystem and the exceptional flavor of the cockles.<\/p>\n<p>Technological advances have transformed the way the work is done. Where once donkey- or horse-drawn carts were used, boats are now employed, which has had a positive impact on the profession. The transition to more modern methods has led to more careful management of resources, avoiding overexploitation and ensuring that the activity remains viable for future generations.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1183556862\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-164722715\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<p><strong>Responsible and sustainable seafood harvesting<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>An integral part of Andrew and his colleagues&#8217; work is the practice of returning cockle spat to the sea, ensuring a healthy population for the future.
