Chesapeake Oyster Week (ChOW) is a weeklong celebration of Maryland’s most iconic shellfish. This statewide campaign, led by the Oyster Recovery Partnership in collaboration with the Maryland Department of Agriculture’s Maryland’s Best program, shines a spotlight on the essential role of locally harvested oysters—from their incredible taste to their powerful role in Chesapeake Bay restoration, and supports restaurants that recycle shells to help restore the Bay.

We feature between seven and thirteen varieties each day, including many from Maryland and Virginia. Seasalt is also a proud member of the Oyster Recovery Partnership program, and we recycle all oyster shells once you are done enjoying them.
