It’s opening day. We’re back to daily hours for the season, open every day from 11am–5pm.
Bring Mom by the farm for freshly shucked oysters, snacks, drinks, and a little time by the river.
@yetiboysfoodtruck is back for the season too.

This is where it starts.
Seed from the hatcheries will begin arriving soon… small enough to fit on a fingernail.
From there, it’s time in the river.
A few years of it.

This time of year, some oysters leave the ice and head to the grill.
You don’t need much.
A hot grill.
Butter, definitely garlic… maybe some parmesan.
Give them a few minutes, until the liquid starts to bubble and the edges curl.

A year in, and starting to take shape.
These oysters just came off the shake table, where they’re sorted by size before heading back out into the river to keep growing.
Every season out here changes them a little. Stronger shells, deeper cups, and more time in the current that helps shape their flavor.

Just two days until daily hours return for the season (11am–5pm starting May 10).
Farm tours are running again, the full menu returns, and @yetiboysfoodtruck is back for the season, too.
If it’s been a while, this is a good time to come back.

This month, we’re featuring Flying Points.
Grown in Maquoit Bay by Eric and Valy Horne, these oysters spend a few years working their way into shape… starting in upweller cages, then settling into the mud flats to finish.
They come out with a deep cup, a sturdy shell, and a flavor that leans a little bolder this time of year.
Briny to start, then something softer… creamy, with a subtle sweetness and a finish that lingers just enough.
Available all month.

Get married and then
Oysters → Sauna → Cold Plunge → Repeat
This is what your elopement day can be like if you add a visit to @gliddenpoint to the days adventures!
The oysters were 💯
Vibes were HIGH
Service was INCREDIBLE
And it was so peaceful and quiet! Ready to rewind and do it all over!
Some oysters are just … bigger.
Glidden Selects come in at nearly 4 inches and up, with a deeper cup and a little more to work with.
Bright, briny, and clean to finish.
Last call before they’re gone for the year.
