Gold Creek Oysters

GOLD CREEK OYSTERS - (Crassostrea gigas) 

Available: September - July 

Packed in 5 and 10 dz. units - ~ 3" in length 

This delicious and classic looking Pacific oyster is seeded and grown on the rocky beaches of the southern end of the Puget Sound of Washington State. The area is famous for the rich history of oyster farming dating back to the gold rush days and still provides plenty of nutrients enabling this oyster to grow quickly and develop a full, firm meat, and the intertidal habitat provides for a beach hardened shell excellent for shucking. The nice, full cupped shell is 3-4 inches in length and the briny, crisp oyster meat makes this oyster a Puget sound favorite.
