About Valley Pearl Oysters

Harvest location: Tyne Valley, PEI

How they’re grown: The oysters spend the first 3-5 years in floating cages in the Foxley River before being transported to Valley Pearl’s fishing lease in Malpeque Bay where they remain for another year until they reach market size.

Why they’re unique: 
The environment is everything to this oyster. Pristine Malpeque Bay is the second-largest bay in PEI and its cold, shallow, protected waters make for an ideal oyster habitat.

Story: 
Valley Pearl was born from a mutual love of eating, talking about, and shucking oysters from Tyne Valley. Both Jeff and Damien have been involved with the Tyne Valley Oyster Festival (as chairman and organizing member) for many years and are involved in competitive oyster shucking. In fact, Jeff is a member of the Canadian team that holds the Guinness World Record for most oysters shucked in one hour- an attempt that he spearheaded. In addition to running the farm, Valley Pearl also operates two oyster bars on PEI. We have a feeling they’re all pretty good shuckers...

Oyster FAQ

How long do my oysters keep?

Your oysters keep in the refrigerator for 5-7 days!  You can order a day or two early to make sure you have them in time for your gathering.  They are totally fine hangin’ out in the cool air.  

How do I store these bad boys?

When you receive your package, pull them out of the box (these guys need a little fresh air!). Grab a mixing bowl and throw the mesh bag in the bowl so that the oysters don’t leak all over your refrigerator. Grab a damp cloth and throw the cloth over the bowl.  You are good to go for the next 5-7 days. Doesn’t hurt to dampen the cloth each day to keep them moist and chilled.

Should I keep them on ice?

Only put the oysters on ice before service.  The oysters will actually die in the melted fresh water so do not store the oysters on ice.  They will not like this.

How are they shipped?

We ship using FedEx Overnight service. You will receive tracking info after the label has been printed the day before your oysters are set to arrive.  We do not require a signature – Fedex will leave your package at your doorstep.

Is your packaging recyclable?

Short answer: YES!

Our ClimaCell thermal liners are made of 90% FSC certified virgin kraft paper and corn starch, which allows you to recycle the insulated liner at home along with the cardboard box.⁠

Not only are the liners water repellant, they’re just as insulating as traditional styrofoam AND they can be recycled up to 5 times. Saving the planet has never been easier.⁠
