Who We Are

Located in the picturesque Midcoast of Maine, Merrymeeting Shellfish Company stands out as the only locally and domestically owned and operated shellfish company in the state. Our team brings together expertise in shellfish, sustainability, and science to operate a cutting-edge hatchery in Harpswell. Our primary mission is to provide high-quality seeds to growers along the East Coast, supporting their success in the industry. Additionally, our facility in Bath serves as a center for innovation and scientific advancement, where we utilize our patent-pending, 3D-printed oyster production system to push the boundaries of shellfish cultivation. We also have a variety of clients in public and private sectors that rely on us for exceptional environmental consulting and marine resource assessment, including but not limited to clam population studies.
