About Riverence Provisions

Riverence Provisions is North America’s largest vertically integrated producer of premium steelhead and rainbow trout in the U.S.A. Our company was founded to decrease the pressure on wild salmon and trout, while providing consumers with the highest quality products available on the market.

We produce gourmet, hand-trimmed trout fillets and smokehouse products at our facilities in southern Idaho. Every Riverence trout has a fully traceable story that we manage from the very beginning — starting with our own brood stock, continuing through egg hatch, grow-out, processing, and distribution. Riverence is also the first trout farm in the US to be certified under the Aquaculture Stewardship Council label.

Our fish are raised in crystal clear Rocky Mountain spring water. We use no growth hormones, no preventative antibiotics, and never genetically engineer our products. And because we’re land-based, we have no escapes, no bycatch, and lowest contaminants.

We're here to take good care of the resources we have, to do more with less, and to provide a safe, premium food source that will serve humanity for generations to come.
