Celebrate Spring with Wild Coho Salmon, $16.10/lb

April 17, 2014 in Seasonal Wild Catch

There is no better time to enjoy the healthful fat soluble vitamins in wild Coho salmon.  As many of us begin to appreciate the warmer weather and increased sunlight, we often think about activities and look forward to getting outdoors and into action.  Your body will need vitamins to keep up with the changes in your seasonal lifestyle.  Wild Coho salmon has many of the vitamins your body will need.  You can replenish body now by eating more wild Coho salmon.  Additionally, owing in part to their more rapid maturity rate, wild Coho are more abundant than sockeye and king salmon, therefore Coho are regularly affordable and available months after the harvest and throughout spring.   

 Otolith maintains the fabulous quality and fresh taste of all our wild Coho available in stores and by way of Otolith’s home delivery service.  Happy Spring!
