Talking oyster trends (and safe shucking tips) with East Hampton Shucker
We spoke this week with John Nicholas, the CEO of East Hampton Shucker. John transformed his family's Long Island marina into an oyster pond, and has created a new device that takes some of the danger out of opening up live oysters.

We caught up with John recently to talk about his new product and the state of the union for oyster growers in the Northeast.
