They can't call it organic since it's not farmed (crazy, right?), but they can call it 'superior' and that's exactly what it is compared to any fish that is raised on a farm! Nice work Kirk and Heather. Check out Taku River Reds if you want organic salmon.

Sadly, we'll still have to keep a close eye on what is labeled "organic" in the future. For example, there's a push right now by fish farmers to put "organic salmon" on the market. These particular fish, they argue, are technically "organic" since they are fed an organic diet but, of course, the envirnonmental horrors of fish farming go against everything that the organic certification is supposed to represent. Crazy world, isn't it? tony Excellent, Maggie! Sadly, we’ll still have to keep a close eye on what is labeled “organic” in the future.

I read a book about a year ago that a friend gave me, and since then, nearly all the food that is in our house is Organic. I was outraged by the treatment of Animals and the junk that they are fed, which later goes into us & produce crops are just as bad. Thank you for the above links, Shopping organic is easy here, however when we are in our house in upstate New York, it becomes a little more difficult. But I'm doing my homework so I have a nice long list of markets to go to. (and I prefer your Syrah with my local lamb) I couldn’t agree with you more!!
