Pocket hatchery to help revitalize oyster sector on Long Island

摘要

New Yorker Ted Bucci would like to be remembered for the part he played revitalizing oyster farming on Long Island. A former teacher, Bucci never expected to find himself doing what he is today — farming oysters. But an experience he had teaching environmental science to juvenile offenders changed the course of his life. Working with students attendingthe Cornell Cooperative Extension of Suffolk County at the marine science center in Southold, inspired him and in 2011 he launched Harbor Lights Oyster Company. He's never looked back.
