LittleNeck Clams
–
Little Necks are the smallest hard shell clam. They are known for their sweet taste. Littleneck clams can be found from the Aleutian Islands to Baja California, though they are only abundant north of Oregon. Commonly found in bays and estuaries along the coast of British Columbia, littleneck clams live at low- to mid-intertidal depths, burrowing into the beach. Usually around 10 to 12 clams in a pound. They measure about 1 to 2 inches across.

Farmed Salmon
Prices are up on farmed Salmon. In large part due to the strike in Chile. The strike in Chile has brought more demand from other countries, like Canada, Norway and Scotland. The State of Emergency is over in Chile. However, people are still protesting, and strikers are blocking routes into and out of the processing plants. We will continue to work with our vendor partners, and monitor the situation.
