The Tidewater Oyster Gardener’s Association will have an informational display and an indoor Oysters 101 training at the Deltaville Maritime Museum during the museum’s Taste of Middlesex on Saturday.

Spat will be sold at the event and Seaglass Wines will have a free wine tasting at the TOGA tent. The Museum is located at 287 Jackson Creek Road, Deltaville.

Raising oysters is easy and only requires as much time and energy as you are willing to put in. You can start raising several hundred oysters to eat or just to help clean the bay for as little as $50. Master Oyster Gardeners will provide literature and address any questions about maintaining oyster floats or cages off your pier or shoreline. Various oyster gardening equipment will be on display.

TOGA’s 1.25 hour “Oysters 101” course will be presented inside the museum building starting at 1 p.m. The course is appropriate for adults and children and will be limited to 20 trainees. Book your spot early by emailing Carl Zulick...
