Description
Site of Aquaculture's modest beginning in Maine - These are a portion of the rafts used to culture oysters in New Meadows River in Brunswick. The culture site is located next to the railroad trestle between Route 1 and Interstate 95. Initially, strings of scallop shells were dangled from the rafts and "spats" from strategically located natural oysters attached themselves to the shells and grew into adult oysters.
