What is Lent?

Lent is a 40-day season of prayer, fasting and almsgiving that begins on Ash Wednesday, March 5, and ends at sundown on Holy Thursday, April 17. According to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, it is a period to celebrate the Lord’s Resurrection at Easter. During Lent, one seeks the Lord in prayer by reading Sacred Scripture and abstaining from meat on Fridays. Believers are called to practice self-discipline and fast in other ways throughout this season.

Heartland Catfish offers fresh U.S. Farm-Raised Catfish in fillets, strips, nuggets and whole in a variety of fresh and frozen options. These options make for a delicious catfish fry on fish Fridays during Lenten season. For larger busier families who need something fast, we offer frozen fillets that are individually quick frozen in a matter of minutes to preserve freshness and ensure a superior tasting and textured catfish fillet. Lastly, Heartland Catfish offers amazing recipes for you to try during this season, like air fryer catfish tacos, mediterranean catfish fillets or a catfish gumbo dip.
