Each year we source seed oysters measuring 2-4mm from reputable hatcheries. At our nursery we diligently care for them as they grow in our aquaculture system. Once they get to optimal size + shell development we relay them to the oyster grounds. For the next year they feed on the nutrients of the fresh seawater, capturing the essence of the region.
