New Zealand Packed Cooked Greenshell Mussels

Forsyth Island Mussels is a family business from Marlborough, New Zealand. The name comes from the beautiful remote island at the head of the Marlborough Sounds where we grew up. The tough and unforgiving landscape of the island, shaped by the billowing winds of the Cook Strait, led to us moving operations from land to the flattest "paddock", the sea. The Marlborough Sounds is one of the few places in New Zealand the endemic Greenshell Mussels are commercially farmed. The sheltered bays and abundant currents which draw in lots of nutrients, make for perfect Greenshell Mussel growing conditions.
