Land ho! We’re beyond excited to announce the February lineup for our 2025 private pop-up series. Headlined by chefs such as Gregory Gourdet, Yoshi Okai, and Adam Tortosa, we'll be serving Wildtype cell-cultivated salmon at invite-only events throughout the month of February. Happy New Year, indeed! If you signed up for the chance to make reservations via our newsletter, be sure to check your inbox (individual reservation links are dropping now!). In a few weeks, we’ll be announcing what we have in store for March. Stay tuned!

This new year, we’re asking a bold question. What happens when some of the best chefs in the country get their hands on Wildtype’s cultivated salmon? In early 2025, we’re teaming up with the country’s most exciting culinary minds for a series of invite-only pop-ups across the USA. If you’re interested in attending, ensure you’re signed up for our waitlist (linked below). We’ll be sharing all the details and reservation access there. If you’re already on our waitlist and didn’t get our email last Thursday, check your spam or email us at [email protected]. Happy fishing! ?? Link: https://lnkd.in/gNYtv_vk

Happy World Oceans Day! To celebrate our favorite day of the year, we're adding some new animals to our illustration collection (created by the amazing Norio Fujikawa). Introducing our orcas, otters, and sea lions - AKA wild salmon's biggest fans. Pacific salmon play a key role linking oceans to rivers, transporting essential nutrients to each environment. Dozens of other species directly depend on healthy salmon populations to survive. The oceans are made up of many complex, perfectly balanced ecosystems like these, and they need our protection more than ever. ??What marine creatures should Norio draw for us next?

Huge congratulations to our friends at GOOD Meat for this accomplishment - the first-ever retail launch of a cultivated product! In Singapore, their cultivated chicken is now available to buy and eat at home. We're feeling peckish just thinking about it. ?? Link: https://lnkd.in/ebk2BGHy

This week, Florida banned cultivated meat and seafood. It's disappointing - we generally prefer fish-mongering over fear-mongering ?? But we’ll continue to do what we do every day: fight to defend Earth’s wild places by inspiring a transition to clean, accessible seafood. Stay tuned!

California’s wild salmon stocks are on life support. For the second year in a row, commercial fishing is at risk of being shut down due to dismal population counts. Learn more about the future of salmon fishing in California here: https://lnkd.in/gVB2G2ci
