Last week, I spread the good word about Sea Forager, a community-supported fisheries company that has been a balm for me the past year. Besides the high quality of the fish and seafood it delivers, a major part of why I love it is because I know where every fillet comes from, who catches it, and how they do it. After reading that newsletter and watching the Netflix documentary, “Seaspiracy,” a reader came to me with some legitimate concerns about the ethics of eating fish at all. Here’s the question:

Up until this year, the Norway-based Kvarøy Arctic exclusively used open-ocean net-pen farming to raise its fish. Now, the company is tapping into both sides of the coastline courtesy of its Arctic Seafarm project. Coastally located about 30 minutes south of Kvarøy Arctic’s headquarters, the land-based Arctic Seafarm facility s construction commenced this fall, with the site capable of producing up to 15,000 metric tons of fish annually, according to the company. The recently-formed Kvarøy Smolt will supply the stock that will eventually be harvested at the facility by Kvarøy Arctic and then sold in the U.S. by 2023.
