Our oysters

Grown on the coast of Mersea Island

Our oysters are grown in the creeks of Mersea Island, where the River Blackwater meets the Essex coast. Cared for by eighth generation oysterman Tom Haward, they’re shaped by the tides, the water and nearly 300 years of family know how, giving every oyster its distinctive clean, briny character.
