Join me for a one-of-a-kind evening celebrating one of the North Fork's greatest treasures—local oysters!
Our instructors are Elizabeth Peeples and Stefanie Bassett of Little Ram Oysters, two of the North Fork's most respected oyster farmers and the people who know these waters better than almost anyone.
This isn't just a cooking class, it's an opportunity to step inside the world of oyster farming and experience the journey from bay to table. Through stories from life on the water, hands-on instruction, and plenty of tasting, you'll discover what makes North Fork oysters so exceptional and how the unique conditions of our local bays shape every shell.
You'll learn how oysters are cultivated, harvested and cared for before mastering the skills to confidently choose, store, shuck and beautifully serve them at home. Along the way, you'll taste oysters at their freshest, experiment with signature mignonettes and sauces, and sip wine (or beverage of choice!) as you experience one of the East End's most iconic local foods in the company of the farmers who grow them.
Whether you're an oyster enthusiast or have always wanted to learn, this is a rare chance to connect with the people, place and craft behind every oyster.

- Learn about oyster farming on the North Fork
- Master the art of shucking oysters safely and confidently
