We owe a big thank you to Jordi St. John of Merritt Island Oysters and and John Herrigel of The Maine Oyster Company for helping us kick off our 20th Anniversary Lecture Series with their presentation, All Things Oyster. More information about the lecture series below.
During All Things Oyster, Jordi and John spoke about the current state of the industry, sustainability, and the science of growing oysters. They then wrapped up the event with questions from the audience while they explained their techniques for opening oysters. You can see them in action below!
20th Anniversary Lecture Series

Everyone who attends these lectures receives a $5 coupon (some restrictions apply) to be used the night of the lecture. These events are free but tickets are required because space is limited.
