Some things you just have to do in the French Quarter. This is one of them.

Watch Executive Sous Chef Kevin Atkinson shuck Grand Isle Jewel oysters to order and dress them with preserved Fresno chili mignonette. Cold, briny, a little heat on the finish.

Not all farms are found on land. 💎

Just off the coast of Grand Isle, rows of floating oyster cages rise and fall with the tide, creating the perfect environment for Louisiana’s off-bottom oysters to thrive.

It’s peaceful. It’s innovative. And it’s helping shape the future of our working coast.

Economic development doesn’t always look the way people expect.

Sometimes, it looks like helping to rebuild an industry. 🌊 Sometimes, it looks like telling a bigger story.

The Grand Isle Jewels umbrella brand was created to help support Grand Isle's off-bottom oyster industry following years of storms, setbacks, and uncertainty. Through branding, a major public relations push, and strategic partnerships, this effort has helped Grand Isle's off-bottom farmers reach new markets while telling a larger story about resilience, sustainability, and the future of coastal Louisiana.

Supporting business growth sometimes means doing something unconventional.
