We are always open to hearing from honest, hardworking individuals interested in joining our family farm. Shellfish farming is a unique occupation where the schedule is established by the tidal calendar and days (sometimes nights) are spent working on beaches back dropped by the stunning flora and fauna of the Olympic Peninsula. Beyond harvesting, farming duties also include processing and husbandry practices. Shellfish farming is best suited for independent individuals who thrive working outside with their hands.
