We are excited to offer Sockeye Salmon from The Wild Salmon Co. Our current selection is Whole fillets (~1# each) and 6 oz portions. Both vacuum packed and frozen. Available at East Raleigh, Raleigh Farmers Mkt and WNC Farmers Mkt.

U.S. wild-caught sockeye salmon is a smart seafood choice because it is sustainably managed and responsibly harvested under U.S. regulations.

Their story:

“We are a second generation fishing family and our business has been family run and operated since the 1970’s. We love the pristine Alaskan waters we’ve fished for over 25 years and participate in efforts to keep them clean.

Our wild salmon are individually caught and hand harvested on small boats in Bristol Bay, a remote region of Alaska known for having the largest run of sockeye on the planet. Each salmon is immediately chilled and delivered to a processing facility to be flash frozen in a way that preserves that “just caught” freshness. With us, there is no middleman and each cut of fish is personally inspected before it comes to you.

Being an Alaska fisherman is more than just a job. It’s who we are and it’s our entire way of life. We take great pride in it and would love to share this it you. Come try our salmon and see why people love us.”
