Our Oysters and Littlenecks are transplanted, and individually tended to on 6
acres of tidal flats within Wellfleet Harbor.The harbor area covers thousands
of acres and is unique because of the large tidal flow,( 9 feet average ) and
the existenceof many tidal marshes which provide food for the native and
aquaculturally grown shellfish. The Wellfleet Oyster has beenworld renown for
300 years, and has been shipped to countries all over the world. The Littlenecks
are a hybrid variety which grows faster, and produces a better yield because
the shell is thinner. (due to the rapid rate of growth) The taste is unique because
of the water flow, and an abundance of nutrients, minerals, and fresh water intrusion.
The harbor is constantly monitored for water quality, and is certified clean by the
State of Massachusetts. At least two thirds of the harbor is bounded by either
National Seashore, and or Conservation (Audubon Society) land.

You haven't lived until you've tasted Wellfleet shellfish!
