Event Type
One day only! Mook Sea Farm will be hosting an Open House on Saturday, June 16 from 9am – 1 pm with hourly tours at 9, 10, 11, and 12. As a busy working oyster hatchery and farm, we are not usually able to offer tours for the public, so we are excited to welcome anyone and everyone this morning as part of the three-day Damariscotta Oyster Celebration (https://www.damariscottaoyster.com/)!
Come sample our Moondancer oysters on the dock, chat with our crew about how we grow oyster seed and market oysters, and join one of the hourly tours. You will learn about the life cycle of oysters and how each life stage is managed and reared within a modern, state-of-the-art, commercial oyster hatchery. The tour will also include a walk-through of Mook’s brand new, one-of-a-kind, land-based facility for microalgae production, market oyster improvement, and packing and shipping.
