A wonderful evening weekday event down the road in AL for our 4th annual party with these folks. It was great to have Corey shucking his expertly served oysters from Grayson Bay. We even were complimented from fellow oyster farm folks in Maine, that the oysters were the best Gulf oysters they have ever had and rivaled there own. We can't take all the credit, a lot has to do with the quartz sand bottom of Pensacola Bay and emerald waters.
It just hits different when the farmers are also the shuckers and hot sauce crew!

We had a great time last weekend hanging out at Odd Colony, slinging some Grayson Bay oysters and amazing smoked gouda dip from Rusty Rooster Seasonings.
Hire us to bring fresh, local oysters to your next event.

Trying to beat this heat means early cast-offs for @graysonbayoysterco , but we love what we do and that gets us up each morning!
Sunrises have been beautiful, but once it’s up, the heat is on!

Last Friday @graysonbayoysterco farm & @emeraldcoastoyster catering along with @rustyroosterseasoningco were part of a really great program for local marine science educators made possible by the @pensacolaandperdidobaysprogram
along with NOAA B-wet. This everything oyster crash course offered a fully submerged week long Oyster discovery workshop for the teachers and took them all over the Pensacola estuary and Bay Area to learn about every aspect of local sustainable aquaculture, from seed to shuck, and they ended the week off with a farm tour right on Pensacola bay with us, the farmer and crew of Grayson Bay Oyster. Giving them a chance to see and experience all of it, and speak with those involved in everything oyster to help form a curriculum on this local growing topic. Coming from a family of educators, & actually going to school for it before life had other plans, made being able to pass on our knowledge and experiences on local oysters & #aquaculture that much more special. Our passion and drive also showed through and these teachers were thrilled to take this new knowledge and resources back to their class rooms next year to teach the future of local oysters! We explained the day to day work, we shucked some #tidalguides FRESH from the water, then about an hour after their rented pontoons pulled away from the farm… our crew rushed back across the bay, got cleaned up, did a super@an change, ran back across the bay, by truck this time) to a community center in GB, & were honored to be able to serve them a full local @emeraldcoastoyster & @rustyroosterseasoningco spread of fresh @graysonbayoysterco oysters for lunch….and give them that one-of-kind #tidetotable #baytobelly experience. With #ECO, The farmer is the shucker, the sauce maker is the grill master, the ones who took out the oyster seed are the same ones shucking & serving them… #knowyourfarmer #trustyourshucker. I really don’t know who was more excited Friday, the teachers or us, the farmer/
Our love for these local emerald Gulfcoast waterways isn’t just something that happened over night, no, these waters have run through our lives & so many generations before us. They are a part of who we are, & those before us, but we must work together to preserve them, embrace the legacy and prepare for the future.
After a wild few weeks that all merged together, we took some time tonight to relax & spend it with family & friends, who with farm hours, sometimes seem to only be seen in passing.
Tonight our own sauce boss, Rusty Rooster Seasoning Company’s dad, who is the youngest 81 year old around, Jammed out with his buddy Bob Daniels @ Milton’s famous Oval Office. It was quite the treat… a really fun evening, & their food always hits the spot! Not a healthy spot, but a good spot!
😅
We hope everyone is having a fun and safe weekend.

Multi tasking, always. Took a break today from Harvesting Grayson Bay Oysters in order to seize the calm seas and work on some Farm Expansion!
Another beautiful busy day putting in the dedicated labor out on the @graysonbayoysterco farm in Pensacola Bay & the work never stops!
Being able to adapt on the fly & change game plans instantly is a part of any farming, but with Aquaculture, seizing the calm seas is an absolute must some days! So even though we’ve been hard at it getting oysters ready for market consumers & putting in the extra hours, today was a perfect day for some farm expansion, so both Grayson Bay Brandon & @rustyroosterseasoningco got a chance to cool off with some water aerobics in our crystal clear local emerald waters while working on running a new line for MORE OYSTERS.
The goal, is not only more tasty #tidalguides, but the big drive is that more oysters means cleaner waters & since @graysonbayoysterco oysters on the farm currently filter the equivalent of 45 football fields one foot deep of water every single day…we will continue sweating and swimming!
The water felt amazing today and the Salinty will have these oysters shucking back real easy!

We are a local Oyster catering company who also works directly on the water each day helping our hardworking local oyster farmers so we just like to make a friendly public reminder this time of year that…
*Our local oyster farmers are on the boats before the sun comes up for harvest days, sticking to strict state guidelines and having the oysters off the water by 10 & in “R”efrigeration before 11 a.m. and below 45° within 2 hours. This hinders any kind of bacteria/Vibrio growth and allows the consumer to enjoy oysters ALL YEAR LONG! The waters are tested daily not just by us, but also mandated by the state and are closed to harvest if the numbers are obscured, but this spring and summer has been great water conditions for tasty Local Oysters! The Pensacola area is blessed to have knowledgeable oyster farmers who truly care, out on the water everyday to bring you the freshest, tastiest, safest, sustainable oysters around!
Keep on Shuckin’… and hey, your choice, it’s all good👍🏼
& if raw isn’t your thing…an oyster comes in its own bowl to hold toppings on the grill!
🦪❤️🔥
Now that you know, make sure you enjoy Local Pensacola Oysters all summer long!! And remember, reach out to the local oyster bars, restaurants, markets, & request a local oyster! ❤️🦪
Or if you maybe want to have a special event with oysters brought to you…maybe along with an on-site low country boil?! Well Emerald Coast Oyster Company offers that too & we are happy to shuck 200-6000+ and boil however many pounds of local shrimp as your heart desires!ECO is your LOCAL farmer direct oyster catering company, who really love oysters!
We raise, shuck, & serve these local delights fresh from Grayson Bay Oyster Co. in Pensacola Bay, raw & grilled, with currated sauces & toppings direct from Rusty Rooster Seasoning Company who is also on board as a Oyster Farmhand, shucker, grillmaster!
Let the tides be your guides, as we serve you up the best Halfshells around!
