As a family-owned and operated business for over a century, we have deep roots in the Pacific Northwest.
We take pride in the work we've been doing since 1890, it all began in Totten Inlet with the tiny Olympia Oyster when our great-great-grandfather began farming oysters in the waters of the Puget Sound. Since then, every generation of the Taylor family has grown up with a passion for shellfish and for the close-knit communities and rugged landscapes of Western Washington.
Our grandfather, Justin Taylor, saw Puget Sound’s potential for a thriving shellfish farming community.
He was a strong advocate for water quality and an innovator of farming techniques. Justin instilled these values and ambitions in us. Today the company is led by Bill and Paul Taylor and their brother-in-law Jeff Pearson who have grown our company past the tidelands bringing our product from tide to table. In the last thirty years they have expanded our product line to include geoduck, mussels and a variety of specialty half-shell oysters. They have created a family environment of over 500 dedicated employees, including their children.
We are proud to be part of the rich tradition of shellfish farming in the Pacific Northwest.
We strive to share our knowledge and passion for shellfish with our customers, fellow shellfish farmers, and any who have interest in aquaculture! Whether you're a seasoned seafood enthusiast or a curious newcomer, we invite you to learn about the journey from tide to table.
One thing we’ve learned over the years is that consistently producing high quality shellfish requires a long-term commitment to people and place. Our dedication to quality, sustainability, and community is reflected in every product we offer. From our family to yours, we hope you enjoy all the fresh shellfish our region has to offer!
