- Kent Island restaurant adds 1 million new oysters to Chesapeake Bay
A Kent Island restaurant, Libbey’s Coastal Kitchen and Cocktails, partnered with an oyster habitat restoration initiative to install oyster cuffs and shell bags around old pier pilings in the Chesapeake Bay. The project, led by Niels Lindquist of Sandbar Oyster Company, aims to create new oyster reefs using cement-filled fabric cuffs and larvae-planted shells to improve the bay’s ecosystem.
