About Simmons Farm Raised Catfish
Growing up in a farming family in Yazoo City, Mississippi, Harry Simmons looked forward to becoming a farmer himself. And in the mid 1970s after farming a few years, he found his perfect crop: Catfish, a clean, sustainable food that could provide delicious year-round nutrition for American families even as it protected and nurtured the environment. Harry began to replace his fields with ponds supplied by aquifers 100 feet below the rich alluvial soil of the Mississippi Delta, and in 1982 Simmons Farmed Raised Catfish Processing Plant opened, ensuring Simmons total quality control over its product. Today, Simmons grow and deliver the best tasting and highest quality U.S. farm raised catfish in the world — right from our family owned farm. Harry knows that every shipment of Simmons Farm Raised Catfish has the Simmons name on it, and that’s important. “I’m proud of my family’s good name,” he says. “I won't put it on a product that doesn't deserve to be called “Simmons!” What Makes Our Products Great?
