What is a Community Supported Fishery?

A community supported fishery provides fishing families with a fair, transparent price for their catch up front. This means fishing families are empowered to be better stewards of the environment and can work ensure that they can keep making a living fishing, season after season.

Consumers also benefit from transparency what seafood is being caught, where, and how. Through this CSF model, Skipper Otto is establishing and rebuilding robust local food systems and communities and keeping our members connected to important issues in fisheries.
