With views over the Barilla Bay Oyster Farm and the Coal Valley the establishment has carved a unique path for aqua-tourism in Tasmania. The next major stage of development for Barilla Bay Tasmania was the opening of an a la carte restaurant and shop (to replace the ‘farm shop’) in 2004. As the market demands more and more single oysters, wild oyster populations face. Live oysters, opened oysters, oyster meat (when available) and from time to time, Angasi Oysters (native Tasmanian), as well as many other wonderful Tasmanian products can now be purchased from the shop. As the first oyster farm in the City of Charleston, SC, our mission (besides rejuvenating your taste buds) is to promote healthy ecosystems, environmental awareness, and local mariculture, while restoring the ever-fading working water front along the Southeast. Customers can now watch their oysters being opened and have the satisfaction of knowing that their purchase is ‘fresh out of the water’. In 1992 a ‘Farm Shop’ was opened selling oysters direct to the public. In 1989, the first batch of Barilla Bay Oysters was exported to the USA and markets were developed in Japan, Hong Kong, UK and Singapore. Barilla Bay is now a major supplier of live oysters to local and mainland markets. Regular health department checks confirm Barilla Bay Oyster Farm's continuous compliance with rigorous Tasmanian health codes. Umpqua Triangle Oysters is located in the triangular breakwater of Winchester Bay, Oregon, where the mighty Umpqua River meets the majestic Pacific Ocean. ![]() This processing establishment was one of the first to be accredited to export oysters to America, complying with the strict USA import requirements. In 1988, the addition of a ‘Processing Shed’ enabled the company to process, split and pack shellfish. In doing so, the company has helped pioneer the production of a 'single seeded oyster', which in turn meant developing new techniques in growing oysters to maturity, finally changing the face of the oyster farm by removing the uncertainty of catching juvenile oysters on 'sticks' in the wild. Single oyster seed is periodically available from our nursery. ![]() Bags of cultch oyster seed is available from our setting tanks or seasoned from one of our farms. To ensure total quality management, the company became a major shareholder in Tasmania's largest Oyster Hatchery. Pacific oysters are set on whole oyster shell in bags or on micro-cultch shell as singles in our remote setting/nursery facility. Unhappy with conventional methods of farming which produced oysters of irregular quality, Barilla Bay Tasmania set about developing new methods of cultivating oysters to further enhance the quality of their product, some of which are widely used today in Australian aquaculture farms.
