FARM TOURS
Join Laura, owner and operator of Fox Point Oysters, on a tour of the farm and learn about oyster farming first hand! Wade in or kayak out in waist deep water to the farm site to explore a small piece of the Great Bay. Prepare to get muddy as we dig into what life on the oyster farm is really like. Learn about aquaculture and what it takes to raise an oyster. At the end of the 1-2 hour tour you will be able to harvest your own dozen oysters to take home and enjoy.
I have scheduled select Tuesdays and Sundays for the tour dates this year during July and August according to times that work with the tides. These are the warmest months and shorts and a tee are considered perfect attire. Click below to reserve your space for the listed dates and times.
If a different date works for you please contact me and we will try to make it work.
$95 per person, kids under 12 just $45
*Please note: Oyster farming is a dirty business. You will get muddy, you will get salty and your will have a great time.
