Om Gårdsfisk

"Vi har utvecklat en finurlig lösning där vi låter svenska bönder föda upp fisk på sina gårdar. På det sättet kan vi fortsätta äta riktigt god fisk och samtidigt minska överfisket och övergödningen av våra hav. Våra fiskar ger under sin uppväxt näring till grödan som odlas på åkern utanför lagården vilket gör det till ett nästintill slutet kretslopp – fisk för framtiden helt enkelt!”
