February is here and we know there are three words that bring most parents mid-winter anxiety, February school break!

Unlike December break, which is usually full of holiday plans and activities, February vacation can be a bit more challenging when keeping the kids entertained for a long week. Playdates and traveling might not be on the list, for this year anyway, so it might be time to get creative and have some family fun at home.

There is so much to enjoy when it comes to cooking with your kids. You can teach them family traditions, stay busy while also getting to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Kids can also develop an appreciation for what goes into preparing and cleaning up meals throughout the week. It is also a great way to teach children healthy eating habits.

We know there are a host of benefits to eating fish including high protein, and it's chock full of important nutrients. If your child is new to eating fish or seafood in general, that's okay! Try something easy like fish tacos. Teaching kids to love fish doesn't have to be a struggle, in fact it can be fun. So give it a try and share photos of you and your family cooking barramundi together on Instagram and tag it #kidslovebarramundi.

Our Famers...

Employee Spotlight: Meet The Wilda's

Keith Wilda part Owner to Great Falls and two sister farms, Blue Stream Cape Cod and Blue Stream New Hampshire.

We Asked Keith...

How did your family get started in Aquaculture?

Keith's Answer: My wife and I have been working in aquaculture together for fifteen years. It's actually how we met. It only seemed natural to take our passion for providing healthy food, and our love for fish farming and turn it into something we could build upon for our family. It's something we all do together.

What is your favorite part of living on one of the farms? (Keith and his family live at the Cape Cod farm raising trout.)

Keith's Answer: The commute is definitely a bonus! Also, walking out my door everyday to one of the most historic hatcheries in Massachusetts and keeping it alive for future generations is a great feeling. We also have gone solar. Doing positive things for the environment is something we strive for.

Lets talk about Barramundi. What makes the facility at Great Falls so unique?

Keith's Answer: It starts with the incredible employees we have that keep it running for us day to day. It's so unique because it is one of the largest recirculating indoor facilities in the country that produces high quality protein in the Connecticut River Valley.

If you were to write a memoir about you and your family, what would it be called?

Keith's Answer: Get Splashed! Life of a Fish Farmer.

What is one thing you want everyone to know about fish farming?

Keith's Answer: That it is a sustainable way to grow quality protein.
