Brendan built & operates a top oyster bar in the state, The Shuck Station along with a great wholesale shellfish distribution business, Damariscotta River Distributors, both located at the mouth of the Damariscotta River in Newcastle, ME.
The Blackstone Point oyster is produced in a tried & true oyster farming method known as the floating cage system where oysters are placed in hard mesh bags bags within a surface floating cage that is suspended at the surface by 2 large pontoons full of air! His oysters are lightly tumbled & lovingly tended & thus exhibit the rivers traditional qualities around shape, color & size, but with subtle yet noticeable splendid variation.
