Four Winds Seafood 7th going on 8th Generation Shrimpers near New Orleans, LA; Look for us at the Crescent City Farmers Market

Sh*****ng stretches over seven generations in the Brandhurst family - back to the 1700s in the Basque region of Spain. Today Kay and Ray Brandhurst continue this tradition in Chalmette, LA, near where Ray docks his hand-built 50-foot trawler, "Four Winds," named for their four children. Kay Brandhurst sells the family's catch (fresh and IQF, or individual quick frozen, shrimp and bycatch like finf

ish and calamari) at the Tuesday and Saturday locations of the Crescent City Farmers Market in New Orleans. Four Winds Seafood also ships wild Louisiana shrimp nationwide.

Check out Kay & Ray Brandhurst of Four Winds Seafood talking about how local fishers benefit from direct marketing their product at farmers market (in our case, the Crescent City Farmers Market) and selling their wild Louisiana shrimp directly to restaurants (like Patois in New Orleans). Offering CSF subscriptions is the Brandhursts' latest direct marketing innovation.

It's not too late to sign up for a CSF subscription (6 shares, each enough for dinner for 2, for pick up at the Tues or Sat CCFM during Lent for $100) with us! Come see me (Kay) at the CCFM for an order form, or purchase online here.

Similar to a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), a CSF (Community Supported Fisheries) guarantees shoppers locally caught seafood, and guarantees local fishers shoppers. Shoppers pre-pay for their "share" of a fisher's catch at the start of the season. In our case, the season is Lent.
