In this episode of OYSTER-ology, host Kevin Cox interviews Nicolette Mariano, owner of Treasure Coast Shellfish in Sebastian, Florida. Nicolette shares her journey from volunteering at a destroyed shellfish hatchery to managing her own sustainable oyster farm. They discuss topics like the challenges of aqua farming, environmental impacts and industry regulations, the stark realities of oyster farming, weather, oyster mortality, equipment and so much more. Despite starting Treasure Coast Shellfish alone at the onset of COVID by diving underwater to tend to her oysters, Nicolette has developed a thriving business known for its high-quality oysters and community-focused practices. This episode gives clear-eyed insight into starting a tiny farm and growing into something big and highly respected, with killer-good oysters.
