The one thing I’ve learned about living on Filucy Bay is that mussels will grow on just about anything that sits in that water long enough. And my experiment which began last summer with a spare old boat fender, has now yielded what��s going to be a hell of a dinner in the next couple of months. . . *** #mussels #musselfarm #cabintime #keypeninsula #beachshack #thegreatescape #southsoundlife #longbranchwa #guenthercabin #pugetsound #nauticallife #dogbuddy (at Filucy Bay, Puget Sound, WA) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ccvpzp7v7W1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Tasting mussels and a white wine at the popular mussel farm "Avi Agustí". It is an enterprising company founded in 1984 that opens up the market and the Mediterranean diet of the area with an ecological, fresh and healthy product. #teddybear #gsbears #gerardsolà #gerardsolaborguno #roulf #mejillonerasdeldelta #mejilloneras #mussel #musselfarm #mediterranean #deltadelebre @sant.carles.de.la.rapita.by.me @deltadelebre #esclusive #delicatessen #ecological #healthy #healthyfood (at Sant Carles De La Rapita) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfdjh3soeDf/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Noticed a deep red sky forming over some tall evergreen trees while driving, so speeded up to find a clearing. 10 minutes later I found this vantage point with an ocean foreground. By then it turned into one of the most intense purple skies I've seen. Those are buoys and lines for growing organic mussels. The 10 second exposure caused some movement in the buoys, but created a more interesting rendition of the moving water. #Pei #princeedwardisland #explorepei #musselfarm #mussels #purplesky #canada (at Prince Edward Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz7WIyfB-cN/?igshid=6vc8j36d03x6

Turner Butler is delighted to announce the sale of Fowey Sea Farms, the well known Cornish mussel farm. We happily were able to oblige with a completed deal within four months.

#Repost @sea_legacy ・・・ Photograph by @CristinaMittermeier // Mussels are a great example of green ocean farming, in which an entire water column is utilized by a fast-growing, low impact species. No feed, pesticides or antibiotics are required to produce this high-quality protein. Small-scale ocean farms like this one, that practice multi-trophic aquaculture to provide sustainable food and biofuel, clean up the environment, and reverse climate change, are the pathway to our planet's health. . . #changemindset #newmodels #shift #regeneration #mussels #ocean #sea #musselfarm #food #delicioushealthyfood #delicious #healthy #healthyplanet https://ift.tt/2vu3hOy

My mussel experiment worked! Grabbed an old boat buoy, anchored it to the sea floor last spring just off the beach — and voilà! Yummy dinner ahead. . . *** #mussels #musselfarm #cabintime #keypeninsula #beachshack #thegreatescape #southsoundlife #longbranchwa #guenthercabin #pugetsound #nauticallife #kayaklife (at Filucy Bay, Puget Sound, WA) https://www.instagram.com/p/CYExa_HJ9Wv/?utm_medium=tumblr

Finishing the job

Calendar Island Mussel Company, Portland, Maine

The mussels move through their first clean and are dragged into a processing area, where they are fed into another machine that further cleans them and also sorts them by size. Ones that are too small for market fall out of the main flow above. Once again, their shells clang against the metal. They roll down clean, shining shafts coiled with thick wire, now clean and shining themselves, ready for packaging and market.

Magenta sunset over mussel farm, PEI, Canada One of the most vibrant intense and magenta sunsets I've ever seen! The mussels are suspended in mesh sleeves tied to long lines and get their nutrients naturally from the ocean. #musselfarm #sunset #mussels #PEI #princeedwardisland #canada (at Prince Edward Island)

A clean mess

Calendar Island Mussel Company, Portland, Maine

After the last mussel clangs its way through the cleaning machine and to a bucket and is hauled into the processing plant on the dock, streaks of mud and detritus from the day's work are washed gently away. Painterly patterns dissolve into the bay.

Despite its messy appearance, mussel farming is one of the most environmentally friendly forms of aquaculture in the country. Impact to the surrounding marine life and habitat is fairly minimal. Mussel farming can actually improve water quality in the area, since the mollusks act as a kind of waste management system, removing sediments, algae, and nutrients from the water as they filter it for plankton.

Most mussel farms in the United States are located off the coast of Maine.
