Kachemak Shellfish Growers

We are a Cooperative of oyster growers on Kachemak Bay in Homer Alaska. Oysters thrive in the water of Alaska's coastline because the water is so cold it makes them tasty. Alaskan oysters don't reproduce in waters this cold, which makes for a high-quality half shell oyster with sweet, plump meat the consumer enjoys. These suspended oysters can feed continually on plankton in the water and avoid exposure to hot summer suns, cold winter winds, mud and sand. As a result of this coddled life, Alaskan oysters are uniformly shaped with deep cups and plump meats -- perfect for serving on the half shell.
