FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<\/p>\n

Contact: Jane Harrison, jane_harrison@ncsu.edu<\/a>, 919-513-0122<\/em><\/p>\n

North Carolina Oyster Week is Oct. 11 through 15. The \u201cshellebration\u201d entails a series of in-person and virtual oyster-related events along the coast and in the Triangle region, featuring opportunities to engage with oyster growers and harvesters, seafood restaurants and retail markets, recreational outfitters, coastal conservation and education organizations, and seafood festivals. (See the list of events<\/a>; note that some are taking place outside of the Oct. 11 – 15 timeframe.)<\/p>\n

\u201cOysters benefit our state in myriad ways,\u201d says Jane Harrison, North Carolina Sea Grant\u2019s coastal economist. \u201cNorth Carolina Oyster Week events will highlight the ecology, culture, economy, and history related to this vital resource.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among their ecological attributes, oysters improve water quality as they filter water for food. Oyster reefs also provide habitat for other animals. From an economic perspective, oyster flavors attract diners who help support the livelihoods of watermen and local economies across the state.<\/p>\n

North Carolina Sea Grant, the North Carolina Coastal Federation, and the North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources are organizing the NC Oyster Week festivities in partnership with the NC Oyster Trail. Events will be listed on the websites of the NC Oyster Trail<\/a> and NCDNCR<\/a>.<\/p>\n

October is a key month for N.C. oysters harvested from state waters. \u201cThe wild-caught season begins on Oct. 15 and continues through April,\u201d Harrison says.<\/p>\n

For those who crave oysters all year, Harrison adds that cultivated, or farmed, oysters always are available. \u201cThe idea that oysters can only be eaten in \u2018r\u2019 months \u2014 that is, September through April \u2014 is a misconception,\u201d she says. \u201cYou can eat cultivated oysters any day with a \u2018y.\u2019 In other words, Monday through Sunday, all year long.\u201d<\/p>\n

North Carolina Oyster Week events<\/a>\u00a0will include cultivated and wild-caught oysters alike. For example, on Oct. 12 at 2:30 p.m., a live-streaming event on YouTube will feature oyster farmer Ryan Bethea of Oysters Carolina, who will delve into the variety of oysters available on our coast.<\/p>\n

On Oct. 15 at 5 p.m., Shuckin\u2019 Shack in Surf City and Wrightsville Beach Brewery near Wilmington will host in-person parties for folks to sample these succulent shellfish. Both establishments are part of the NC Oyster Trail, which offers year-round opportunities to taste, learn about, and protect oysters. The trail\u2019s mission is to help sustain and grow N.C. oyster supply and demand, resulting in economic, environmental, and social benefits to the state\u2019s seafood industry and coastal communities.<\/p>\n
