Why "Point Gorm"? It's Irish for blue point.

The name is a nod to two legacies: the historic Blue Point oyster of New York, and a family line of commercial fishermen and lobstermen in Sligo County, Ireland, going back generations. Now it's growing in the cold, turbulent water of the Peconic, one cage at a time.

Thank you @davyjonesshellfishco for letting us tell your story.

Cheers to the day we all look forward to each year!

Easiest way to stay healthy this season. Buck a shuck! Slurp back a half a dozen oysters. Packed with essential vitamins and minerals that build immunity, promote heart and brain health and are low in calories. There are so many benefits- especially during Happy Hour.😉🥂🥳

When there’s too much nitrogen in the ocean, algae takes over, oxygen disappears, and the underwater ecosystems collapses. 😭🧜‍♀️

Oysters help by filtering excess nitrogen before there is an imbalance - they also use their gils to filter out tiny particles like plankton and algae and they spit out cleaner water.

Did you know an oyster this size can filter 50 gallons of water?

Thank you to @davyjonesshellfishco! If you’re in the North Fork, you can buy his oysters at one of his self-run kiosks on the side of the road at Shagwong Marinas! And if you own a restaurant, he delivers to NYC on Wednesdays.

Most farms need inputs to grow food - even organic ones. Water, compost, tilling, and labor. The best farms work hard to do this responsibly without depleting the soil. But oyster farms are completely different.

Unlike fish farms, oyster farming does not happen in enclosed tanks with antibiotics or feed added. It happens directly in open seawater and nothing is added.

Here are 5 ways oyster farms are the most environmentally friendly ways to produce food:

1. They don’t need to be fed 🍕
Oysters are filter feeders - they eat what’s already in the water (plankton, algae)
→ no feed, no additives, no outside inputs

2. They actually clean the water 🌊
As they eat, they filter the water.l
→ clearer water + healthier ecosystems

3. No land, no added water, no fertilizer 😍
They grow in the ocean.
→ no soil depletion, no irrigation, no chemical runoff if compare to conventional farming

4. Low labor + low energy 🥰
Farmers mostly place and maintain cages/lines. They still work their ass of but can be successful with less equipment and a smaller team
→ way less intensive than most farming

5. They support the ecosystem 🌎
Oyster farms can act like mini reefs creating habitats for fish and marine life

Thank you to @davyjonesshellfishco for a magical afternoon out on your boat. If you’re in the North Fork, you can buy his oysters at one of his self-run kiosks on the side of the road at Shagwong Marinas! And if you own a restaurant, he delivers to NYC on Wednesdays.
