Teche Valley Seafood is a family owned and operated crawfish farm located in Saint Martinville, Louisiana.  Our family has been raising crawfish since the late 1960's.  What started as a small job for teenage children for extra spending money has become a growing business.  We continued to expand acreage for rice and crawfish production.

      In 1983, Teche Valley Seafood was built to sell our own products.  We sold mainly peeled crawfish and live crawfish.  Our business grew more and more to a whole sale and retail market.  We now farm several hundred acres and ship thousands of pounds of live crawfish every year to retail and wholesale customers on a local and national basis.

      In 1998, our family members were honored as crawfish farmers of the year by the Louisiana Crawfish Farmers Association.  In two straight years, we have also received Award of Merit for Outstanding Accomplishments in Resource Conservation in 1996 and 1997 by St. Martin SWCD.  We have participated in research projects with the Louisiana State University and University of Louisiana at Lafayette by allowing them to use our crawfish ponds to conduct their research project, which related to water quality and bird habitats.
