About Butterfield Shellfish Oyster Farm
If you're going to grow a delicious oyster then you need to find the right water. The environment where an oyster grows will influence the taste. The salinity of the water, the minerals present in the substrate and the flora that surrounds the oyster will all play a role in the taste. We spent a lot of time looking for the perfect spot and when we found it we dedicated ourselves to growing our oysters with all of the love and care that they deserve. Our oysters are cultivated in the cold waters of Casco Bay off the coast or Maine. Our family farm is nestled in between Little Moshier and Moshier Islands where life is plentiful below the surface and beautiful sea grasses surround our oysters. When you pop one of our plump and delicious Moshier Island Royals in your mouth you will experience a complex taste that includes a fresh ocean brininess (medium) with a clean and bright finish.
