Why us?
The hatchery has the character of a small village, nestled between the bay and steep hillsides along Port Armstrong’s scenic shores. Our facilities have grown alongside increased production, featuring three incubation buildings, ten rearing raceways, and over fifty saltwater net pens. Supported by hydropower and water from nearby lakes, we sustainably rear chum, pink, king, and coho salmon, ensuring self-sufficient operations with electricity and heat generated on-site.
As a private nonprofit organization, AKI is committed to operating the Port Armstrong Hatchery sustainably, contributing to Southeast Alaska’s fisheries while innovating fish culture techniques to enhance hatchery salmon production and support local economies.
