Puget Sound Restoration Fund operates community shellfish farms in Puget Sound to restore and maintain healthy shellfish growing areas, spur cleanup efforts and maintain community access to shellfish resources. The purpose of a community shellfish farm is to connect residents, community members and students to their marine environment at a gut level. When residents get involved in shellfish farming they personally benefit from clean water - they get to eat shellfish right off the beach, they get to experience the productivity of a healthy marine ecosystem, and they become invested in maintaining water quality.
At the Henderson Inlet Community Shellfish Farm volunteers can participate in oyster harvests, routine farm maintenance, learn about water quality, bivalve ecology and always oysters on the BBQ.
