As populations of large apex-predator fish like tuna and swordfish plummet, anchovies and other forage fish can thrive with responsible harvest. Unlike the salty, fishy anchovy filets of pizza fame, our canned Spanish White Anchovies are prized for their mild flavor and delicate texture, and are hand-packed in extra-virgin olive oil. Anchovies are small, schooling fish, allowing us to enjoy seafood with the health and environmental benefits of eating lower on the food chain.
- Sourced from thriving, well-managed populations in the Bay of Biscay, off Northern Spain
- Small-scale purse seines reduce bycatch and prevent overharvest
- Anchovies reproduce fast, making them a more renewable resource
- Our fishermen belong to centuries-old cofradias, or guilds, which share profits and encourage cooperation
- Processed, seasoned and canned by a family-owned certified B Corp, also in northern Spain, that employs mostly women

Can is 100% aluminum, BPA-NI* and recyclable (if clean and dry)
Why is an outdoor clothing company making food?
Industrial agriculture depletes soil, poisons water and threatens the outdoor places we love. Protecting the earth, and our future on it, means we have to find a better way. So we make foods that restore the planet instead of destroying it. As our founder Yvon Chouinard says, "People buy a jacket every few years, but they eat several times a day. If we're going to save our home planet, it starts with food.”
