Wild Alaskan Salmon "Wild Alaska Salmon" is the identifying phrase for knowledgeable seafood lovers wanting to provide a delicious, healthy, and safe food for their families. In recent times, the public’s perception of wild salmon has been of a species which is endangered or near extinction. This is certainly not the case in Alaska. Alaska enjoys salmon runs of truly magnificent proportions. Each year millions upon millions of salmon return to their native waters to spawn. These returns are due to the pristine environment and the ongoing research and management practices of the Alaska Department of Fish & Game.Alaska Salmon are spawned and reared in the icy waters of America’s last frontier. When they are no more than a few inches long they migrate from their home rivers and streams to the Pacific Ocean where they swim, forage for food, and grow strong. In natures own time they feel the call and return to the very spot they were born to complete the cycle of life. At the very pinnacle of this cycle we harvest, prepare them, and begin their journey to you. A few words about sustainability…Many different stocks of fish in the world are in trouble from over fishing or mismanagement. They are being fished into extinction or their removal from the food chain causes a shortfall of forage for other species. The Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) is a group whose research has identified dwindling fish stocks, world wide, and has acted to safeguard over-exploited fish species. The MSC has certified "Wild Alaska Salmon" as a "Sustainable Fishery". Additionally, Alaskan Salmon are also certified as "A Best Environmental Choice in Seafood". At Alchemist Seafoods we catch, process and sell only "Sustainable Seafood".Whenever or wherever you buy Salmon, demand "Wild Alaskan". Never settle for less. |
