Attendees will begin with an educational tour giving an exclusive look behind the scenes of a historic, sixth-generation family-owned and operated shellfish farm to learn the craft of oyster farming from the experts. 

J&G oyster grounds

Afterward, guests can relax and indulge in a charming beach picnic with freshly harvested oysters, seasonal salads, charcuterie boards, and refreshing beverages paired with live music and stunning views.

The event is made possible by two beloved local businesses bound by shared values and a love for the region.

When pandemic-era restaurant closures left J&G without buyers for their shellfish, a cold call to a beloved neighborhood market sparked a meaningful, lasting partnership. Today, T&C sources hundreds of pounds of J&G clams and oysters every week across all six of its markets — product that travels straight from the farm's own tanks to the store’s within the hour.

For locals who have enjoyed J&G oysters and clams at T&C's seafood counter for years, Field & Feast is a rare chance to meet the harvesters and experience their favorite meal at its very freshest. Learn more about the partnership HERE.
