Homage to the Nantucket Oyster by C. Oscar Olson

A culinary bounty of oceanic proportions awaits in the waters surrounding Nantucket. From the striper to the squid, the scallop to the sea bean, everyone can help in the harvest and enjoy these delicacies from the deep. There is one bivalve, though, that stands out from the sea of options all around us. And though we’ll never know who first thought the humble oyster was worth sampling, we are forever in their debt. Oysters thrive in waters around the world, but it’s been said some of the best come from the cool, clean Atlantic around the shores of the northeastern United States. They are enjoyed grilled or baked, in soups, deep fried, or, most popularly, all on their own in the half-shell. Over the past 100 years, global oyster numbers have fallen by an estimated 80%. That number is even higher in the United States, with an estimated 88% loss in oyster biomass over the same period. Northeast coast populations, the oysters we know and love, have been some of the hardest hit, with less than 6% of their once historic stocks remaining today. There are many reasons for this substantial loss, including over-harvesting, improper bed rehabilitation, habitat loss, and disease caused by pollution and poor water quality. In response to worldwide population loss of such a special species, scientists and researchers have made significant efforts in restoring oyster reefs. The waters around Nantucket Island are pristine, making our many marshes, shallows, and coastal alcoves ideal for bringing oysters back from the brink. In June of 2017 and 2018, the Oyster Restoration Project in Shimmo Creek was launched. This one-acre sub-tidal area consists of eight loose shell rows, making up more than 100,000 pounds of recycled oyster and quahog shell with seven rows of bare bottom in between. All the work was done by many volunteers, including local non-profit organizations, students, and community members. Oysters provide us with us much more than a refreshingly light lunch. They are filter feeders, meaning

they take in water from their surroundings and extract particulate matter from it such food debris or krill. A single oyster can filter about 30 gallons of water a day, dramatically improving the water quality wherever they grow. In turn, this can serve to improve visibility, making it possible for sunlight to penetrate deeper to give grasses the sunlight they need to thrive, which work to clean the water and stabilize the sand even further. Additionally, the dissolution of oyster shells can combat acidification: the ongoing decrease in the pH value of the Earth's oceans. The most prominent cause is the uptake of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, though there are some smaller scale influences as well, such as sewage runoff and the use of nitrogenbased fertilizers. The shells help to stabilize pH levels and protect other plant and animal species, and, along with oyster reefs, they also provide habitat for numerous types of fish, shellfish, and crustaceans, while acting as a shoreline buffer against high surf and erosion. The benefits of healthy oyster beds are almost endless. Since the project was implemented in 2017, eelgrass has been found in areas of Shimmo where it wasn’t growing at all. Additionally, animal diversity has been climbing steadily since the restoration project began. During a 2016 survey, just 16 unique species were trapped and identified, a number that climbed to 29 just three years later. It is too soon to be sure, but these are positive signs things in our seas may be moving in the right direction. The Town of Nantucket allows for just five licenses a year for the public to harvest wild oysters from our waters, but their elusive nature makes that more than enough. A keen eye may spot these hard-to-find wonders in Sesachacha Pond, on the jetties, in the harbor, or just off Easy Street Boat Basin. Fortunately for the rest of us, Nantucket has been a haven to oyster farmers since 1982. Currently there are six growers who use either continued on page 72...

HOW TO NAVIGATE THE

CURRENT MARKET The dream of buying a home on idyllic Nantucket has become increasingly popular and with the shift to working remotely and spending larger chunks of time away during the summer, buying has never been more competitive. Our current market is certainly not for the faint of heart; here is a guide to help make the most of your Nantucket property search:

ENGAGE | A local broker is a wealth of knowledge and will provide comprehensive market updates, helping you navigate the ebbs and flows of our market. Your broker will work through strategic contingency language and put you in prime position to succeed in multiple bid situations. We are your link to the HDC, ConCom, and a bevy of local contractors.

KNOW YOUR CRITERIA | What is your idea of Nantucket living? Think about your wishlist and decide what is important to you with regard to location, planned use of the house, and property attributes and amenities. Get your financing together and engage a bank with experience in Nantucket’s market.

DIVE IN | If you see something you like, make the time to see it. Because Nantucket has a booming short-term rental market, many homes that are for sale are also tenant occupied during the summer months. Advance notice is required for showings and sellers’ brokers are present. Your broker will coach you through the offer and contract process, and can point you in the direction of a local attorney and provide a list of home inspectors to assist with your due diligence. BOTTOM LINE | Inventory is greatest during late spring and summer. While the off-season is quieter and there are significantly fewer buyers physically on the island, we are continuing to arrange virtual showings and see contract activity from remote buyers. Your best chance of success comes when you take an active approach. >> For more educational editorials and more on this topic, visit: https://ack.fish/buying101. If you’re curious about an estimated valuation of your property, contact Lara today.

“Lara was a pleasure to work with on my recent transaction in the red hot Nantucket Real Estate market. Lara kept me updated at every turn from listing to contracting and negotiating right through to closing. I recommend her highly and would use her services again without question.” - Jamie, 2021 Seller

Nantucket Oysters continued from page 3

bottom culture or floating cages to grow oyster seed (juvenile oysters) purchased from a state-approved hatchery. One of them is Pocomo Meadow Oyster Farm, located on the south side of Pocomo Point near the mouth of Polpis Harbor: one of the oldest farms in operation on Nantucket. Twice a day the tide carries a rush water through the narrow channel connecting to Nantucket Harbor, and these oysters thrive in the fresh water bubbling up with nutrients from springs below the sand. Pocomo Meadow specializes in fresh Nantucket seafood. In addition to oysters, Pocomo Meadow digs for wild littlenecks year-round and harvests the coveted Nantucket bay scallop from November to April. Oysters, much like the grapes used in wine making, can reflect the flavors found in the water in which they are grown. Even a difference of just a few miles can have a profound effect on the quality and character of an oyster. Flavor also fluctuates month to month and season to season. Simon Edwardes, founder and owner of Fifth Bend Oyster Farm, calls this likeness to terroir “Merroir.” “My oysters have a nice, salty start with a sweet, smooth finish,” says Edwardes. This is very much due to the fact that they grow in the brinier waters at the Head of the Harbor. Fifth Bend Oyster Farm is is part of a 60-acre section out past Pocomo that has been set aside by the Department of Marine Fisheries for aquaculture, and Edwardes is one of five other farmers growing in that area of the harbor. He began the application process in 2010, and it took about a year before Edwardes was able to get his operation off the ground and into the water. “The people involved were awesome,” he recalls, “these things just take time.” According to Massachusetts law, a commercial oyster farm cannot be established in any area where other natural species exist. At Fifth Bend, the water is more than 20 feet deep, and the seafloor is nothing but mud, so Edwardes uses floating gear to grow above the bottom. “There’s not much else down there other than maybe a lost conch,” Edwardes laughs, “and it would be 72 nantucket HOME

a miracle if something did show up, given the state of the harbor.” Of English descent and a native of Kenya, Edwardes moved to the island in 2004. He often employs his two sons, 14- and 15-years-old, to help with the labor when they’re free from school. “I hire other kids when I can too, college kids as well. It’s a fairly physical job, it certainly better suits younger people.” On a good day, Edwardes and his team can haul upwards of 200 nets out of the water. But the work never ends: “It’s like painting a bridge. By the time you finish on one end you’ve got to start back on the other.” The bags need to be emptied of oysters to reduce their density and clean algal growth regularly to ensure they thrive under the best conditions. Almost the entire local oyster harvest, about 95% of it, is served exclusively in Nantucket restaurants. Last year, every Simon Edwardes eatery on-island committed to Farm selling only locally grown oysters, Fifth Bend Oyster helping during a particularly challenging year. It is estimated that an astounding 300,000 oysters are enjoyed on Nantucket every single year. Each farmed oyster starts out ranging from about the size of a grain of quinoa to a kernel of corn, and spends its first two years of life growing in a large mesh bag suspended in the sea. Once they've reached three inches long, they’re caged, or, in Pocomo Meadow’s case, set free in the marsh as "free range oysters.” Once mature, they’re pulled up or raked and harvested by hand, put on ice, and quickly served up inside of 36 hours at some of Nantucket’s finest eateries. While the oysters are hunkered down under our waters, hard at work helping to keep our harbor clean, there’s are some things that the public can do to ensure they continue to flourish. Nitrogen plays an important role in the air as it does in our oceans, but too much of it can cause serious problems. When levels in the water start to climb, an inevitable increase in algae blooms cause oxygen levels to fall. Globally, oceans have lost around 2% of dissolved oxygen since the 1950s. This might not seem like much, but the consequences are apparent all around us. On a larger scale, warming oceans hold less oxygen, making it more buoyant than cooler water. This continued on page 73...


Floating gear marks the 60-acres set aside for oyster farming.

leads to reduced mixing of oxygenated water near the surface with deeper waters, which naturally contain less oxygen. Warmer water also raises oxygen demand from living organisms. And as a result, less breathable oxygen is available for marine life. Little adjustments in our everyday lives can make a big difference. Nitrogen-based fertilizer used on lawns and in gardens will eventually find its way to the water, as will sewage runoff and waste from boaters. Discontinuing the use of these products and being more mindful of our waste will help mitigate the problems in our harbors and those posed by our warming oceans. If you’re interested in getting on the water for a hands-on learning experience, reserve a seat on one

of Shearwater Excursions Oyster Tours. They will be offering these trips twice a week through mid-October and can be hired for a private oyster tour charter. Details are at shearwaterexcursions.com. In-season, the Nantucket Land Council collaborates with Shearwater Excursions to offer an educational afternoon aboard Shearwater’s power catamaran. Captain Blair Perkins, NLC Executive Director Emily Molden, Nantucket Waterkeeper RJ Turcotte, and Oyster Farmer Simon Edwardes give passengers a tour of Head of the Harbor and and explore Fifth Bend Oyster Farm. Though these tours have wrapped up for the 2021 season, the 2022 schedule will soon be posted on nantucketlandcouncil.org.
