β¨October is National Seafood Month! β¨
A chance to learn more about the food we harvest from the waterβand the people who grow and catch it.
Here at Islesboro Oyster Co., we take a diversified approach to sustainable ocean farming, growing oysters alongside sea urchins, scallops, kelp, and other species. Each has a different role in the marine ecosystem, and growing a variety helps us work with the bayβs natural rhythms. Weβre building a farm that produces local food while caring for the waters that support it.
Choosing local seafood connects you to its source and supports working waterfronts, family businesses, and generations of knowledge on the water.
This month, try something new, ask where your seafood comes from, and get to know your local farmers and fishermen. π
