Caveats
PROGRAM, NOT A SINGLE FARM: a company/brand coordinating a network of independent fishing boats (own site: 'Meet the Fleet'), analogous to a brand-program over a rancher network (cf. Snake River Farms) rather than a single producer. Score the entity type, not the string.
Community-supported-fishery (CSF) company connecting small day-boat fishing fleets directly to chef customers nationally. Founded Montauk, NY; expanded an LA program (associated with chef Michael Cimarusti) supplying Southern California restaurants. Own site: 'a sustainable seafood company working with the nation's top chefs to deliver the freshest fish on earth,' with 'Meet the Fleet' and 'Sourcing' pages describing named boats/fishermen.
