Vital Choice SeafoodRandy Hartnell, founder of Vital Choice Seafood, relationship with wild
salmon first began more than 20 years ago when he went to Alaska and landed a summer job
on a fishing boat to finance his way through
Berkeley. By the time he finished
school several years later, these summer sojourns had become much more than a
job. Fishing in Alaska had become
a part of hi life. Rather than continuing on to grad school as planned, he
bought a boat and spent the next twenty summers riding twenty-foot tides and
becoming intimately familiar with the wild sockeye salmon. Every season on the
water was a satisfying immersion in nature accompanied by long days, hard work,
close friends, plentiful salmon and fruitful wages for the labor of harvesting
them.
