Mi’kmaq Farms and Fish Hatchery will quadruple its annual brook trout production from 12,000 to 48,000 pounds after building onto its facility in 2023.

In 2022, Mi’kmaq Farms provided more than 8,000 pounds of trout and produce to the Mi’kmaq Nation and Aroostook County alone, valued at more than $30,000.
 

A majority of the fish from the trout hatchery is sold to keep Mi’kmaq Farms operating, rather than being used as food by the tribe. There is high demand for brook trout in the food markets, tribal communities and areas outside Aroostook County, including places such as Harbor Fish Market in Portland and Northern Maine Brewing Company in Caribou.
