Did you know that cultured PEI oysters are farmed all year round?
That's right: even on the darkest, coldest days of winter, our courageous fishers head out onto thick, frozen bays and estuaries to harvest oysters from the depths.
They cut through more than a foot of ice with chainsaws, then dive into the dark waters below to pull the pods or cages out.
Their passion and perseverance know no bounds ❤, and oyster lovers around the world reap the delicious rewards with every slurp!
So, when you're planning a special dinner or heading to a party this winter, bring a few dozen PEI oysters to the table. Share the story behind how they're harvested from under the ice and watch their jaws drop 😃
