We have a great selection of oysters this week. Make sure you are on our East Coast oyster list that we send out every week. We have access to several varieties each week.

Call you sales rep to pre-order today!
Gulf Oysters
The Louisiana Gulf has opened some areas, and others remain closed due to too much freshwater in the bays. Freshwater from the spillway has killed off quite a bit of oysters. Limited areas of Galveston Bay are open for Private Leases only. We currently don’t foresee any issues with fresh oyster sacks and shucked gallons. Gold Band oysters will be available, but limited, as we try to get as much as we can from the Louisiana Gulf.
