The term "Fishwife" dates back to the 16th century, and originally referred to the daughters or wives of fishermen who sold fish at the market.
The term gradually evolved into gendered insult for women who were brash, foul-mouthed, and brassy. We relate.
Who We Are
Our mission is to make ethically-sourced, premium, and delicious tinned seafood a staple in every American cupboard.
We currently work with small boat fisherfolk, sustainable aquaculture farms, and microcanneries on the Pacific coast and in Idaho to bring the vibrance of conservas culture to the American table.
Tinned sustainably fished or farmed seafood is an ethical, healthy, convenient, and delicious seafood choice.
Rainbow trout, albacore tuna, and salmon are protein-packed, high in vitamins and minerals and rich in fatty acids.
Meet the Fishwives
Hi, we're Becca Millstein and Caroline Goldfarb.
We started Fishwife because we love tinned seafood more than anything, and have a sneaking feeling that you do too. We’re so excited to dive in, and would love nothing more than to have you along for the ride.
