I worked for two years as an oyster harvester on Chincoteague Island, Virginia and work conditions were tough. I remember having to get off the boat and walk through storm waves just to insure our racks were properly secured. It’s one of those jobs where people don’t realize it takes a lot of work just to insure they get a decent oyster to eat at their table

@fistofram5526

Maybe people just shouldn't do them just for someone to have them at their table; someone who doesn't know and doesn't care.

Oyster farming actually improves the quality of the local natural environment too, unlike the vast majority of human food production.

This is within sight of our home. My husband has met John and we have purchased directly from him from time to time. It’s really cool to see their boats come and go every day en route to the beds. We have had no jellyfish in the waters for more than 8 years which many attribute to the cleanliness of the water due to the oysters. Pretty cool!

Fun fact: Oyesters are natural water cleaners. They can make water crystal clean

Awesome. The right way to expand would be to go global with sustainable farming with rural communities worldwide, who would provide the Labour and the profits shared on a partnering model. Plus the CALCIUM rich shells could provide raw material for Limestone to industries & pharma

Watermen Careers are considered to be among the most dangerous of occupations. They work throughout the whole year depending on their particular fishery (meaning what species specifically they are in the business of harvesting) and in every/all weather conditions until they deem it too dangerous to risk, which isn’t often. I went to high school in the town that is home to the Mobjack Bay. Little old Mathews Va. The water is definitely a major part of life for many that call that region home.

I don’t understand or see how their business is hurting because of the COVID pandemic. It is not like the oysters are dying or the competitors are gaining more of the market over them during these times. Every industry was shutdown so there’s no competition. At the meantime, the oysters,having a lifespan of 20 years , will continue to grow larger in size and abundance will be available when the pandemic is lifted.

@Pehcas

At least you admitted you don’t understand. Two things COVID caused businesses to shut down = less buyers of oysters. Secondly the majority of people prefer smalls & extra smalls. Not big ones

Mmmm just the right size, looking creamy and fresh too.

I haven't had an oyster in 7 months, no restaurants get them right now here in Michigan. 😢

When you measure an oyster farm with a Colosseum:

oysters taste good.

Wow I would like to work with them....

Putting my two cents in with those commenting on John's looks: I bet it was 2020 that did it. If they'd interviewed him in 2019, we'd see someone who looks like the son of the guy here. 2020 felt like a decade, not a year. I know I got my first gray in the hair last year.

That line of work sure does accelerates your age. 35 looking 60. 😂

So he's hit hard like everyone else maybe I'm wrong but if his sales slow the oysters just keep growing so no product loss correct..............
