HIGH QUALITY STANDARDS
Exceptional Taste
Our seaside brand clams are
harvested as demand requires
keeping them in our protected waters
before quickly grading and shipping
them to you. We can package little,
middle or top neck clams in any
combinations you request.
Harvesting Clams
Our Clams have a very distinct brine that is a direct
result of our unique location in Little Machipongo's
ocean inlet which is bordered by the undeveloped
Virginia's Barrier Islands. Our clams are protected by
the Nature Conservancy's Virginia Coast Reserve.
Our waters are monitored and certified safe by
Virginia Department of Health.
Pristine Location
Dedicated crews leave Willis Wharf
daily and travel north on the Seaside
Rd, 8 miles to the town of Quinby.
Once the boats and crew are ready
to leave the harbor it is about a 7
mile boat ride towards the Atlantic
Ocean to the mile and a half wide
Little Machipongo Inlet, where our
clams are able to be harvested year
round.

Year Round Harvest
Harvest areas are nestled in the
center an internationally recognized
nature biosphere. Water quality is an
important factor in growing clams
because they can accumulate
pollutants especially after heavy
rains in populated areas causing a
harvest restriction. Our grow out
location is unique to the East Coast.
Only local perennial streams flow
into the remote seaside estuaries
with little impact from the sparsely
populated shore.
