Can We Get An “Oh Yeah” for Oysters Week?
Oysters are champions of water quality. An adult oyster can filter up to 50 gallons of water a day! Not only that, but these incredible bivalves form extensive reefs that provide habitat, buffer coastlines from wave energy, and provide food. This week we’re putting our science caps on as we measure oyster growth and recruitment. We’ll build vertical oyster gardens and watch spat, or baby oysters, appear. And how lucky for us that oysters also happen to create beautiful shells for ocean-inspired art projects. The world is our oyster this week, and we want you there.
