Looking for a cool experience where science leads to sustainable culinary bliss?!
Join Oyster Seed Holdings for a hatchery tour and tasting running every other Friday, May – August. Get a behind the scenes look at what it takes to put oyster seed in the hands of farmers.
On Tour Fridays, there will be 6 tours with 6 people per tour starting at 5pm. Your ticket gets you an oyster tasting and a tour through the hatchery with a staff member where you will learn how oysters get their start.  Also included is access to the pop-up oyster bar from 5-9pm where you are welcome to come before and stay after your tour time to enjoy the sunset over local oysters, beer, and wine for sale.
From Oyster Seed Holdings: Please note that we regret that our facility is not currently ADA accessible.  In addition the floors in the hatchery can be wet and slippery and patrons should wear appropriate, grippy, footwear.
