Clean Water. Quality Oysters.

Our mission is to help protect our world’s ocean through sustainable farming practices.

A damn good oyster just happens to be a byproduct.

Nestled in the space where the forest meets the sea, Hump Island Oyster Company embodies the spirit of Alaska. The deep glacier channels and endless midnight sun provide cold, crisp water and ample food for our little bivalves, creating some of the most pristine growing conditions on the planet.
