Why Florida Seafood Matters: Delicious, Sustainable, and Homegrown

Local Flavor, Local Impact

Choosing Fresh From Florida seafood supports farmers, families, and local businesses.

When you buy seafood that’s Fresh From Florida, you’re doing more than choosing what’s freshest, you’re helping build a resilient food system that supports local jobs and celebrates the best our state has to offer.

We proudly partner with Fresh From Florida, a state-supported program promoting Florida-grown and harvested products. Their mission is to connect people with food that’s grown close to home, with quality and freshness you can taste.

Sustainability Isn’t Just a Trend, It’s a Commitment

Long before sustainability became a buzzword, we made it our backbone. Since 2020, we’ve earned the Best Choice rating from Seafood Watch, and we’re proud to say we’ve since been recognized by ASC as well. For us, these aren’t badges; they’re proof that doing things the right way matters.

We started Bluehouse with one simple belief: great seafood shouldn’t come at the cost of the ocean. That belief is why we chose a different path. One built on innovation, responsibility, and a genuine respect for marine life.

Organizations like Seafood Watch and ASC now highlight Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) as a forward-thinking solution for the future of seafood. We’ve been all-in from the beginning. RAS lets us reuse water, manage waste with precision, and raise salmon in a way that protects the ocean we all love.

This isn’t about telling people what to choose. It’s about sharing why we made ours, and how it’s shaping a better seafood future.

What is RAS and Why It Matters

At Bluehouse, RAS isn’t just a system; it’s our signature. Our Recirculating Aquaculture System is a fully closed-loop water cycle designed to work smarter, not harder. Every drop of water is filtered, cleaned, and reused; not wasted. This is how we raise salmon responsibly without relying on the open ocean or impacting fragile wild ecosystems.

Because everything happens right here on land in South Florida, we’re able to control water quality, reduce environmental impact, and bring fresh, sustainably raised salmon straight to America’s dinner tables. No long-haul imports, no guesswork about where your seafood came from.

Our Bluehouse Tech allows us to:

• Recycle and recirculate up to 99% of our water
• Manage waste with precision
• Protect native ecosystems
• Deliver fresh, local salmon year-round

Our salmon is thoughtfully raised from day one.

Salmon is one of the most-loved seafoods in the U.S., yet environmentally responsible options are still rare. That’s where we stand apart. Our locally raised Bluehouse Salmon meets Seafood Watch’s Best Choice rating and aligns with ASC’s rigorous standards, meaning it’s produced with the health of the ocean, and the planet in mind.

Why This All Matters

Florida seafood represents more than food, it’s a future we can all invest in.

From coast to kitchen, every choice counts. By choosing Florida seafood that’s fresh, sustainable, and locally grown, you’re not just supporting a meal, you’re supporting a mission.

So the next time you’re at the grocery store, seafood counter, or local market, choose local. Choose sustainable. Choose Florida.

We’re proud to make this holiday season a Fresh from Florida one!
