An evening focused on oyster farmers and their oysters. Your ticket includes one drink from the bar and oysters.
Join ecoRI News, Eat Drink RI, and Eating with the Ecosystem for an oyster-filled evening at Tilted Barn Brewery in Exeter. The event, which is inspired by a recently reported ecoRI News series of articles on aquaculture, will feature a panel discussion on oyster farming in Narragansett Bay. The brief discussion will be followed by a tasting of local oysters, including a beer or other beverage options from the brewery. It’s a perfect opportunity to learn about sustainable local seafood — and the hard work it takes to get those oysters from the water to your plate — while enjoying some of the finest oysters the Bay has to offer.
Whether you're a seafood enthusiast, a supporter of local sustainable food systems, or just looking for a unique night out, this event promises to be both informative and delicious. Come connect with local experts and fellow community members who share a passion for our local marine ecosystems.
This event is sponsored by the Pulitzer Center.
