Thanks to the Panacea Beer and Oyster Festival for letting Florida State University Coastal and Marine Laboratory collect oyster shells for their Shuck 'N Release Oyster Shell Recycling Program.

The collected, cured shell is used to restore habitat, allowing for natural recruitment or as a base for hatchery-raised "spat-on-shell". For more information contact ABSI at [email protected].
