2024 tours have ended
Every other Friday from May through August, visitors can experience a tour and tasting experience at Oyster Seed Holdings to see how farm-raised oysters get their start. Guests will start with a 30 minute immersive tour of our facility, one of the largest producers of oyster seed on the east coast.
Tickets include a serving of raw and cooked oysters paired with local wines at our water side oyster eatery, The Hatchery Food Truck, while enjoying views of Milford Haven at Callis Wharf.

AQUACULTURE
BOAT TOUR TO A FARM
Boat charters run every week on Fridays or Saturday. Take a look at Capt. Trey's schedule on his website. Charters must be booked well in advance and can accommodate groups up to 6. You will be redirected to book.
This year, we have partnered with Mathews Deadrise Charters to offer more aquaculture experiences from our location at The Hatchery! Now you can take your oyster experience one step further by booking a boat charter that takes off from our floating dock. Whether you book it alone or add it to your hatchery tour experience, you can learn about how oysters are raised to adult size by visiting a local farm on the Milford Haven.
