(2)

Come to the Chesapeake Bay region of VA-specifically the Middle Bay where two tasting regions converge. Home of Virginia's Official Oyster Festival-the Urbanna Oyster Festival and where working watermen still ply the waters of the rivers that feed the Bay in search of this tasty bivalve. Where aquaculture is booming and new oysters are cleansing the Bay. Home of the Deadrise-Virginia's official boat-built just for these waters. Make this region your home for delicious Virginia Oysters!
