Few oysters are subjected to this level of uninterrupted motion throughout cultivation, and the result is immediately visible in their dense, cupped shells. The aggressive surface growing conditions followed by bay-floor finishing produces an oyster that really reflects the merroir of Great Peconic Bay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cb id=\"docs-internal-guid-f0807ab1-7fff-2f46-8872-7f7f125aa335\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStory\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlthough the other farm is relatively young in comparison to many of the decades old farms we work with, Jacob has held nearly every job on the water that one can: from diving for wild oysters in Long Island Sound, to digging clams, to working in commercial fisheries, operating a Sea Tow (like a tow truck service for boats), and even as a Harbormaster. The legend of ‘Davy Jones Locker' dates back to the 15th century. In maritime folklore, Davy Jones is the devil or guardian spirit of the sea who presides over his “locker”; a euphemism for the ocean floor where sunken ships and drowned sailors find eternal rest. Jacob’s oysters are named after this seafaring myth and the early days he spent diving for wild oysters at the bottom of the bay floor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 135%; margin: 0in 13.4pt 4.0pt 1.65pt;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/islandcreekoysters.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/S-23443.webp\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCalifornia Prop 65 Warning\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Island Creek Oysters | Buy Oysters Online | Buy Caviar Online","offers":[{"title":"50 Count | $2.80 per Oyster","offer_id":46383698608278,"sku":"OY-DJO-SEL-50","price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"100 Count | $2.29 per Oyster","offer_id":46383698641046,"sku":"OY-DJO-SEL-100","price":229.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"150 Count | $1.99 per Oyster","offer_id":46383698673814,"sku":"OY-DJO-SEL-150","price":298.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0079\/8462\/files\/DJO8.jpg?v=1778679089","url":"https:\/\/shop.islandcreekoysters.com\/products\/davy-jones-oysters-from-cutchogue-ny","provider":"Island Creek Oysters | Buy Oysters Online | Buy Caviar Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
