Oysters are a natural resource, a keystone species, and ecosystem engineers, filtering water and regenerating themselves. By transporting shells from your table to the shore, we are diverting shells from the landfill and reconnecting this natural resource to its coastal home. Recycled shells play a pivotal role in helping create many types of intertidal structures to help combat rising sea levels and help proliferate all types of sea life. Plainly put, the more oyster shells that we recycle and return to the ocean, the more of our shoreline and ocean we can help preserve!
