When you approach a New Zealand green-lipped mussel farm all you can see above water are the lines of buoys floating on the surface. The mussels are suspended from long lines attached to buoys. They take about a year to grow to the desired length of 80mm. No fish feed is introduced into these farms; the green-lipped mussels feed exclusively off the naturally-occurring phytoplankton, microscopic, single-celled plants that drift near the ocean's surface and live off the nutrient-rich Antarctic waters and the sun's rays.

The Marlborough Sounds of New Zealand is a coastal wonderland, with winding waterways, sheltered bays, and ancient untouched forest. The Sounds remain relatively undiscovered, a retreat from the mainstream although, if you need it, civilization is unexpectedly close at hand. Stopping in at many of the restaurants you will find the New Zealand Green lipped mussels.

The aquaculture farming of green lipped mussels is highly regulated by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries (MAF). This ensures that the mussels conform to the highest standards. The environmental studies of New Zealand mussel farming have discovered minimal ecological imbalances associated with the farming. The greatest environmental impact is the sight of orderly lines of floats holding the ropes on which the mussels are growing. Additives are never used. A clean environment is critical for a good harvest, so the mussel industry goes to great lengths to safeguard the farming areas. Farms tend to be located away from urban areas and farmers work with people on shore to minimize pollution. New Zealand green lipped mussels are not a major food source for marine mammals, adding the sustainability of harvesting them. Even with all these precautions and safeguards, the entire mussel industry continues to look for ways to be even more environmentally friendly and improve its environmental practices.

The clean water created by New Zealand's isolation from other nations and ongoing efforts to preserve its marine resources make New Zealand green lipped mussels the best Omega-3 source on the planet. No contamination such as heavy metals and other toxins.

Decades of independent scientific research have suggested that Omega-3 is a natural anti-inflammatory from which everybody can benefit from. And antioxidants attach themselves to free radicals and reduce their potential harm to our organism. Studies have shown that diets high in Omega-3 can safely assist to reduce inflammation, pain, and illnesses associated with heart disease, cirrhosis of the liver, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, depression, dry-eye, psoriasis, and allergies.
