Seafood for your Belly

​

In 2010, NONESUCH began as a tiny oyster farm in a nature conservancy in Scarborough, Maine, just south of Portland. Today we are an award-winning company and our oysters are in select, food-worshiping restaurants across the country! 

We ship the Maine Coast to your door every Wednesday!

Seafood begins with Sea Water

The future of our seafood lies in our back yards. Nobody is too far away to be concerned. The watershed for the Gulf of Maine extends into Canada. Good gardening and healthy lifestyle practices can keep our marine environment safe, healthy, and productive.

These two oysters are of the same species. The seed was purchased from the same hatchery. They are the same age. They were both grown on our farm. We call the one on the left an Abigail Pearl and the one on the right a Nonesuch Emerald. What is different is that they were grown in different places in the water column: in suspended gear and free range on the bottom. At low tide that represents very little difference. But small changes in the marine environment have huge ramifications for what's living there. We must take great care.

Seashore Literary Pursuits

I've selected some great reading, books that I think about almost every day as an oyster farmer, environmentalist, and citizen of Maine and the world. I am honored to have NONESUCH appear in some of these books. Others are important big picture reads that help us better understand our seafood and our world.

Below, we invite everyone to submit an Oyster Love Haiku.
