We spent some time today at the J.C. Lore Oyster House Counting spat and sharing our story with others. To see the spat, we use a macro lens on a cell phone camera. The spat are almost too small to see with the naked eye, but an experienced eye knows what to look for. Lucky for us we have some great people helping us along the way! |

In 2023 the Patuxent River had a record breaking spatfall for oysters. To aid in the resurgence of oysters, Patuxent River Seafood is planting 25 acres in the Patuxent River. The plan is to jumpstart the area by recovering silted shell, adding shell, and planting oysters. The oysters will serve ecological functions including filtering nitrogen and phosphorus until they are marketable.
