Behind the Scenes Look at Island Creek Oysters
Found along the Massachusetts coastline, the
Island Creek Oyster
farm in Duxbury is one of the U.S.'s largest oyster distributors. If you've enjoyed an oyster in New England in the past 10 years, it's probably been from Island Creek, or from one of their farm partners. Known for their gritty and briny taste, Island Creeks have quickly become a New England staple and are now enjoyed in restaurants across the country (and even Canada and the Caribbean). I got to tour the farm in Duxbury and see how they grow this delicacy, so check it out!
