What makes our rock oysters stand out?
- They spawn in the wild and grow in the marshes surrounding Mersea Island. This gives them a unique punchy herbaceous flavour with a longer finish (that’s what she said) 🌱
- They come in different shapes and sizes to hatchery oysters. No one oyster is the same ☺️
- We have been harvesting them on the same stretch of mud for over 300 years - 8 generations of hard work and love have gone into producing a world class product 🦪
We’re obviously biased, but we’re very proud of the oysters we farm and sell all around the UK 🇬🇧
If you haven’t tried our oysters, visit us at or order them for delivery online 🧑🏻‍💻

Part 2 ✌🏻 after we have caught and washed our oysters, we put them over our amazing grading machine. This helps us sort our oysters by weight and we then tag them by colour to make our packing process easier. Our next reel will show you how our UV system works.
