Sadly all of their farm tours are on hold for summer 2020, no visitors are allowed at the farm location. However, we bought a dozen delicious oysters at their Oyster Stand on Ackerly Pond Lane. $15 for a bakers dozen all self serve and Venmo accepted.

My husband and I really enjoyed your farm tour! We learned so much - who knew that oysters were so complex. The wine pairing was a very unique touch that worked so well with the oyster tasting. Such a cool experience - highly recommend!!!

A triple threat - educational, fun and delicious! Ben and Dave are the best tour guides and know how to farm amazingly yummy oysters.

We started off with a tour of the hatchery, where the oysters are born, then got to the docks and saw the oysters in action. Ben showed me some cute baby scallops and I even got to wear my own “oystering” suit while Dave showed me how they sort oysters.

We finished off the tour with a lovely oyster tasting paired with local wines. A must for all shellfish lovers!

I went to the Northfork for my 25th Anniversary. The concierge at our hotel recommended the Southold Bay Oyster Farm Tour. It was amazing! The owners ran the tour. They were knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about oysters farming. We learned so much and then had an oyster/wine tasting. I highly recommend this!

Ben and Dave did an excellent job explaining the challenges and rewards of raising healthy seafood in a sustainable manner to 14 Food Studies masters’ candidates. And, their oysters are delicious!

We had Southold Bay Oysters serve at a private party, and it was fantastic! They arrived on-time, set up quickly, and were very professional. We really liked the table they had, and how organized everything was. Dave and Ben were also very friendly, and quickly became part of the part (not just the servers in the background). They were also knowledgeable about oysters, and the North Fork region. The oysters themselves were delicious, and gone too fast.

Excellent & fascinating tour. I've been shucking & eating oysters for many years, yet I learned so much more from this tour. Ben is a true gem. He is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about oysters and he presents it all with a great personality and sense of humor. Finished the tour in a gorgeous bayside setting, shucking & enjoying the freshest oysters and a good local wine.
