Grant Award

Conscience Point Shellfish

We were happy to return to Conscience Point Shellfish to help with the building of their Bottle Upwelling System (BUPSY) inside of the lab.

When the water temperatures are too cold for oyster growth in the outside Downwellers, they will be able to let oyster spat grow inside of these bottles. With a small lab, their efforts were limited due to the lack of space during the winter and early spring months. This system should help triple seed production compared to last year. Conscience Point donates to Southampton Township to help keep waters for everyone to enjoy!
