  • Oysters have an ancient history in the waters of Chesapeake Bay. ​But due to over-harvesting, pollution and disease, more than 99% of the historic native oyster population has disappeared. The state of Maryland has committed to a restoration plan looking to rebuild oyster colonies in five tributaries on its side of the bay. Skyler Henry met up with the team leading the effort.

    Love this! I live and work in Baltimore just down the street from Faidley's and the University of MD which are both historic institutions in this state. I'm a transplant here & MD is a small state but one of greenest most beautiful ones in the country! We Marylanders love our seafood -- oysters and crabs of course! And we also love the Chesapeake Bay which we are working to preserve. Thanks for featuring all of these iconic symbols of MD in your story!

      I went to college on the eastern shore and used to work at a seafood restaurant in south Baltimore. I only ever ate the chicken after that cause I found out “Maryland Blue Crab” is shipped in from Louisiana... dunno where the oysters were coming from specifically, but according to this news segment 99% of MD’s local oyster population is dead or diseased... so you do the math...

    We need more Oyster farms too, which can help regenerate the native population separately from the farmed-population (both help clean the waterways and ocean). But the Maryland Government is terrible for business, and starting a new oyster farm is practically impossible.

    When I worked in downtown Baltimore I regularly walked to the Lexington Market and made a beeline to Faidley's Market. I would stand at the oyster bar and eat a dozen oysters and pay $1.25. I haven't been there in years, but I imagine the price had gone up quite a bit. Those were the days.
