Neguntatogue Oysters
Neguntatogue Oysters was founded in 2020 by Keith & Nicole Powell to grow fresh, genuine Blue Point oysters for all to enjoy, while advocating for the waterways they call home. By growing thousands of oysters each year that clean our waters naturally, Neguntatogue Oysters provides fresh shellfish to local restaurants and customers, while helping to restore Long Island’s bays and creeks in conjunction with projects such as habitat restoration and education about the fragility of the Great South Bay. Long Island has been home to oysters, clams, scallops and sea plants for centuries, all of which act as natural filters for our waters while sustaining life on land by adding valuable nutrition to our meals. Today, the future of the bay - and the Neguntatogue Creek in present day Lindenhurst - are in jeopardy due to human-caused factors such as overfishing, mass fertilization, improper waste disposal and climate change. It’s our mission to help protect and restore these aquatic ecosystems for future generations to enjoy, while hand-tumbling our oysters to give you the best product possible - deep cups and unmatched flavor.
