Our oysters are handpicked from local waters daily. The Rappahanock River has a salinity range of 15 ppt-18ppt. This gives our oysters a lightly salty flavor with a creamy butter taste.
We proudly offer a wide range of oyster products for our wholesale and retail customers. Oysters can be bought by the bushel or shucked. Our company offers 2 labels Choice of Chesapeake and Urbanna Creek.
