13) Skipper Otto’s Community Supported Fishery (CSF)

Skipper Otto‘s Community Supported Fishery (CSF) creates a direct connection between local fishermen and consumers with the joint goal of protecting ocean resources and improving our local food system. CSF members buy in at the beginning of the season and receive a share of premium, wild, local, and sustainably caught seafood.

Members have boat-to-fork transparency, knowing how, when, where and who caught their fish. The CSF has now grown to support 30 fishermen and to offer halibut, tuna, spot prawns, and crab, as well as a large variety of salmon fillets and smoked/canned items. They also serve members across Canada from Vancouver to Toronto!”
