The Wild Salmon Company Buying Clubs

A little about us……

Heidi with a King Salmon

Hi! I’m Heidi and I run the Wild Salmon Company. We are a tiny outfit committed to providing our customers with an amazing product—delicious, nutritious, sustainably-harvested wild sockeye salmon. So committed in fact, that everything we sell is fully guaranteed. We are also dedicated to the notion that we all should know where our food comes from; that it strengthens our community and our biosphere when we buy organic, locally-sourced food. I am not an organic farmer, though, I am an Alaskan fisherman, and have been since I was fifteen years old. My dad, my brother, me, it’s always been a part of my family. I have been a deckhand, gillnetting for sockeye salmon in southwest Alaska for nearly twenty years, and now I run my own operation.

How it works……

We catch the fish in Bristol Bay and as they are picked out of the net they are placed directly, and with great care, into an icy, briny slurry that quickly cools the salmon. Then the fish are delivered to a processing facility where the fish are filleted, de-boned, and flash frozen, preserving that “just-caught” freshness.

Our promise to you……

In “real” life, I am also a serious foodie, and I struggle to discern a difference between our product and the freshest of the fresh. And that’s no fish tale. This is what I do and really, it seems like what I am supposed to do. Hopefully, this site can show you all why, around here, we are committed to providing delicious, sustainably harvested, high-quality food at an affordable price. Welcome, try our fish, and I promise you will see what the fuss is all about!
