Learn the process of farming delicious local oysters at a working aquaculture farm. The tour follows the life cycle of an oyster from the spawning process through the grow-out phase as well as the gear used to farm oysters. Your experience concludes with an oyster shucking lesson and a beachfront sample tasting of our Southold Shindig Oysters!
