Despite Covid19, we’re pulling out all the stops to get the project up and running in the summer.
Currently, we are sourcing equipment and waiting for our marine aquaculture planning permission from Argyll and Bute Council which will allow us to grow juvenile native oysters in floating baskets. In July, we hope to get the small oyster farm off Eilean Buidhe installed, and introduce 150,000 juvenile native oysters that have been spawned from disease-free Scottish brood-stock at the Morecambe Bay Hatchery. These will be grown in baskets until they’re big enough to be moved to the trail seabed sites on Loch Craignish.
