How to Eat Truly Sustainable Seafood (And Know Your Fisherman) w/ Fairweather Fish (028)
What does it really mean to eat sustainable seafood—and how can you be sure what you're buying is actually wild? In this episode, I sit down with Jess and Caleb Robbins of Fairweather Fish to talk about the realities of commercial fishing, raising a family at sea, and why knowing your fisherman is the future of ethical eating.
We cover:
• The truth about "wild-caught" labels and imported fish
• What makes hook-and-line fishing different
• How the Robbins built a values-led fishing business from scratch
• Why Costco salmon might not be what you think
• The unexpected connection between wellness, grit, and life on a boat
If you've ever wondered how to make more conscious choices with your seafood—or what it’s like to build a business on the ocean—this one’s for you.
