Going out the farm on the Quad bike. 
Loading the oyster bags into the trailer to take ashore for their first grading – these bags have been double bagged to protect the younger oysters in their fine mesh bags. 
Grading this years seed oysters for the first time in the grading shed. 
Putting the graded oysters back out on the farm. 
Seabed culture of rock oysters (Crassostrea gigas) – these have been grown in exactly the same way as those in the bags up to about 10grams and then are spread near the low water mark on the seabed and left to thir own devices-they grow a much wider shell and a meatier texture similar to native oyster (Ostrea edulis).
