Blue Foods offer a promising solution to feeding the planet without exacerbating environmental damage. Sustainable wild fisheries, for instance, leave minimal carbon footprints, use little freshwater, and avoid artificial additives. Choosing locally sourced, wild seafood not only supports healthier eating but also reduces transportation emissions. By prioritizing Blue Foods, we can make a significant positive impact on the environment while nourishing ourselves sustainably.

Here at Local Ocean, we buy a lot of fresh catch. Directly from the docks, sometimes over 6,000 pounds at a time. Fish are filleted and stored a few miles from the restaurant, making the word "local" in our name no idle boast. This is no small feat and requires a lot of space for filleting and freezing local catch.
