Apalachicola is closed to harvest until the end of the year minimum and has been closed the last four years. Alabama has instituted strict harvest regs. Meanwhile commercial leases have grown. Wild catch is starting to wane from the heydays of the 70s and 80s….Aquaculture is starting to take over (oyster farming) and the over-regulation by the Peoples Republic of Maryland is pushing the commercial out of business. That's the term I should've used, aquaculture. I didn't mean commercial harvest of wild but commercially grown. I'm seeing oysters sold under brand names that are commercially grown vs wild caught. You can't get an Apalachicola oyster any more unless it's aquaculture.

We are having Turkey Day Dressing with oysters in it. Looking forward to the briney local treat incorporated into an otherwise regular side dish.

Looking forward to the briney local treat incorporated into an otherwise regular side dish. I've been contemplating making up a batch of oyster dressing. It really isnt a family tradition for us but I did have one aunt on the coast that would make it if we were down there for the holidays.

I can't recall.a Thanksgiving or Christmas without oyster dressing growing up. Yesterday might have been my first Thanksgiving without oysters of any kind. But it was also my third Thanksgiving in the last 10 days, lol. I fried oysters at my sister's last Sunday.
