Happy New Year, once again🎉✨
As the year begins, it feels right to pause and reflect on the journey so far and the systems being built on the farm ( - TSFs). A new year brings fresh energy, clearer focus, and renewed commitment to doing things intentionally and sustainably.
Raising catfish with Black Soldier Fly (BSF) as a main part of their feed has been a deliberate choice, and this choice is not just for growth only, but for sustainability and fish health.
BSF helps convert organic waste into high-quality protein, and in turn supports stronger, healthier fish with good flesh quality. Watching the fish grow well and naturally has been a rewarding experience.
After harvest, part of the produce is smoked catfish, a method that has stood the test of time. Smoked catfish is not just about flavour, it’s also about preservation. Proper smoking reduces moisture content, which helps slow down spoilage and allows the fish to last longer without chemical preservatives. The smoking process also enhances taste, aroma, and texture, making it a staple in many homes and traditional dishes.
Have you tasted the smoked version? I bet you'll take a break off fresh catfish for the main time 🤪
Beyond preservation, smoked catfish remains a rich source of protein, healthy fats, calcium, and essential minerals. You know, water is reduced during smoking, the nutrients then become more concentrated, making small portions very nourishing. When done hygienically, smoked fish retains its nutritional value while offering convenience and versatility in cooking.
Alongside fish production, the farm continues to run as an integrated system — BSF production, poultry, and vegetable farming all working together. Each unit supports the other, helping reduce waste, manage costs, and promote sustainable food production.
Still learning, still refining processes, and grateful for every stage of growth. Cheers to consistency, progress, and meaningful harvests in the year ahead 🌱
N:B - Catfish, noiilers and local chicks are still very much available for sale.
