Neptune's Harvest

Neptune's Harvest Fertilizer division came about as an endeavor to fully utilize the fresh fish by-product from the filleting process. When a fish is filleted, the process of removing the edible portion from the fish, up to 70% of it remains! What's left are the heads, skeletons, scales and fins- this is called gurry. In 1986, when Neptune's Harvest was started, this portion was being brought out on fishing boats and dumped back into the sea. Clearly there was a need of more economical and environmentally sound method of use for this valuable by-product. Ocean Crest Seafoods and Neptune's Harvest, in conjunction with the state of Massachusetts and its local universities, has developed a process through which we changed an environmental hazard into an environmental benefit, the result being Neptune's Harvest liquid fish fertilizer. After several years of trial and error and further refinements we now believe that we have the finest fertilizers (either organic or inorganic) available today.
