Happy Friday! 🦪

From farm to shell to gone in 3 seconds. Whether you’re at home or at your favourite restaurant, treat yourself to some oysters this weekend.

You heard it from Paul first!

After some well earned rest and plenty of farm maintenance, we’re back and kicking off the season with a stacked weekend of events, a wedding Saturday and the harboursidemarketscoffs on Sunday.

Thank you once again for your patience during the off season and for your continued support and commitment. We truly appreciate it.

Here’s to a fantastic season full of oysters.

It’s boiling season!

It’s always one of our favourite times of the year here at the Nambucca Oyster Company. Alongside continuous grading, the colder water temperatures mean it’s time to start boiling our oysters.

Our giant boiler allows us to remove biofouling from both our oysters and equipment in just three seconds.

Each pack is lifted from the water by crane and lowered into water at approximately 90°C for just three seconds. This process lets us work quickly while avoiding a traditional 7-day drying cycle, meaning our oysters spend more time growing and less time out of the water.

Every step is about producing healthier oysters, improving efficiency, and delivering premium quality.

The oyster season may be over, but the work never stops.

We’re already preparing for the next season, carefully grading oysters now to ensure only the best make the cut.

Behind the scenes, the drying never stops. To keep our operation clean, efficient, and running smoothly, we dry and boil oysters every month, delivering the best results year round. 🦪💪🌊

As the season comes to an end, it’s time for us to say goodbye… until August.

We would like to sincerely thank all of our wholesalers, restaurant partners, and local customers for the continued support you have shown us over the years. It never goes unnoticed, and we are incredibly grateful to be part of such a supportive community.

Despite last year’s floods, we worked hard to get back on our feet quickly and continue delivering the high quality oysters you know and expect from us.

Over the coming months, we’ll be focusing on grading oysters for next season, carrying out some well-earned maintenance on the farm and equipment, and continuing to look for new ways to produce the best oysters possible.

Thank you again for your ongoing support, and we look forward to seeing you all again in August.

We had the pleasure of being part of in Nambucca Heads this morning, the segment was full of excitement, and what an amazing crowd who turned up for it.

Thank you to everyone involved for making it such a memorable morning.

At NOC we use multiple farming techniques to make sure our oysters are always at their best.

One of the ways we refine them before harvest is by finishing them in baskets. Baskets have many advantages such as:

1. Better water flow The basket design allows strong water circulation, helping oysters access more food and grow well.

2. Reduced fouling The structure helps prevent the buildup of mud, algae, and other marine pests.

3. Improved oyster shape Natural movement inside the basket gently tumbles the oysters, helping develop deeper cups and more uniform shells. 🦪
