Why Organic? This is a sustainable form of salmon rearing and is not harmful to the environment. It is an ideal alternative to mass-produced farmed salmon and to wild salmon, which is fast becoming an endangered species.
Location
A key element in ensuring the quality and purity of our Organic Salmon is the environment in which they are reared. Our Organic Salmon are reared in the wild and clearwaters of the Atlantic Ocean, 6 kilomteres off the coast of Co Mayo. The location of this marine site is recognised as one of the most exposed in Western Europe. The salmon live and feed in conditions that resemble their natural habitat.
The high water movements generate strong water currents against which the salmon are compelled to swim. Such strong exercise results in fish with a firm flesh and a lower than average fat content.
