Thank you to The University of South Alabama's Marine Science Student Association for having our founder Maureena Wilson and neighbor Dr. Andy DePaola at your meeting tonight! We LOVE discussing all things aquaculture, and were very honored to receive the invitation.

Beautiful day and perfect weather! Water was a bit turbid but dissolved oxygen was off the charts good! Not too much longer till our babies are ready to go. 😉

Hey there oyster lovers! Sorry for the radio silence over the last few months. We've been busy as ever rebuilding the pier, and are happy to announce we have made a full recovery from Hurricane Nate! YAY! 🎉 Stay Tuned! Updates with pictures of our progress to come, once this icy weather moves out! Happy (late) New Year from MJ Oyster Farm!

*Here's a view of the beach from Mon Louis this week! 😮

Great Read! Follow up to the article we posted earlier this week.

I started in order to satisfy my oyster cravings but ended up more addicted to growing them and out grew my appetite! This year my oysters were being served in fine restaurants in Atlanta, Birmingham and New Orleans.

Great article featuring our neighbor Andy! A healthy oyster population is vital to the overall health of our estuary!

To restore the natural balance, we propose a sort of sexual revolution in our waters. We seek to restore the critical spawning mass of oysters in our estuary so that the natural reefs may begin to repopulate, and new reefs can appear.

Got the babies up out of the water, awaiting Hurricane Nate! Hopefully things won't get too crazy.

Late post: We were finally able to move our babies over from the 6mm cages to the 12mm. They are not ready to eat yet, but will be soon. 😉
