Every order is packed in insulated, eco-friendly boxes with liners, air cushions, and more than 5 lbs. of dry ice to keep every item continuously frozen until it arrives at your door the next day. And if you’re not at home when delivered, it’ll stay frozen for up to 30 hours (or until you arrive home from work).

The product(s) inside will be in a chilled state. If you're planning to enjoy your seafood within the same day, then place it in the fridge. If you'd like to hold off a few days before eating, keep the products in the freezer until you're ready to dig in.

Please note: Our packages contain dry ice, so do not touch it with your bare hands to avoid the risk of burning.

About the Brand: Cold Country Salmon

FROM OUR FAMILY TO YOURS

Cold Country Salmon is a small-scale fishing operation working the crystal clear blue waters of Southeast Alaska. Local owner/fisherman Zac Culbertson lives just outside of Charlottesville where, when, not fishing, he runs a small acreage family farm. Every June we head to Elfin Cove to fish on the coves and bays of Southeast Alaska. Our season lasts from mid-June till the end of August with the peak occurring in Mid July. During the peak, we oftentimes fish for 2-3 days straight without stopping. While we fish we are constantly selecting the very best of our catch to bring home to sell to our local customers throughout Virginia and D.C. at our farmer's markets and local deliveries and with our expansion into a new storage and shipping facility we can now ship our fish to any address east of the Mississippi.

BEYOND SUSHI GRADE

The fish that we select are immediately bled on board our boat, filleted, and packed in ice. Onshore we immediately package and freeze our salmon. This very special handling process is what sets our fish apart from any other wild-caught salmon available on the market. Literally, nobody in the industry has such exacting standards. This is why we designate our fish as "Beyond Sushi Grade". Wild Caught Salmon from large retailers generally passes through large-scale commercial processors who don’t adhere to these exacting standards resulting in lower quality fish.

SUSTAINABLE FOR YEARS TO COME

The state of Alaska mandates that all fisheries be sustainable, and biologists managed to ensure their future viability. Farmed fish is categorically banned throughout Alaska to prevent the pollution of not only the coastal watershed but the wild salmon genome.

BEYOND SALMON

In addition to our superior King, Sockeye, and Coho salmon, we are able to supply our customers with several lines of caught species of fish including sablefish, halibut, pacific cod, and pacific rockfish, caught by a small community of fishing boats out of Elfin Cove. In addition to our raw seafood, we offer local Virginia seafood and local artisan foods like beef, bison, lamb, pork, coffee, desserts, vegetables, oils specialty spices, sauces, and adult beverages to complement your meal!
