MICHELLE ROSE CSF
FISHERMAN: Guy Johnston
Do you want to eat tasty, locally and sustainably caught seafood and help support local fishermen involved in sustainable fisheries? Become a member in the Michelle Rose Community Supported Fishery (CSF). A community supported fishery is direct fair trade between fisherman and consumer. As a member of a CSF you get the West Coast’s highest quality seafood at prices fair to both members and fishermen. My name is Guy Johnston. I have been a fisherman for over 40 years. I use hook and line to catch salmon and fish and fish by trap for prawns and shrimp: all low impact fishing methods. As a CSF member you will connect directly with the local fishing community and have healthy and sustainable seafood year around.
