Sustainability

Fresh cultured blue mussels. The perfect food. The aquaculture industry is generally known to be one of the most sustainable industries in the world. Mussel farming is a shining example of how nutritious and delicious food can be raised in a sustainable way.

 

The reasons why mussels are so earth-friendly

Canadian growers only farm mussels in clean, environmentally approved waters meeting international water classification standards.

In addition, farmed mussels help reduce greenhouse gases by removing carbon dioxide from the ocean in order to grow their shells.

Mussel farming is endorsed by environmental groups such as the Audubon Society, Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch and Eco-Fish.
