April 5, 2012 - MasterClass at B&G Oysters

Join B&G Oysters for the final Explorers Series Master Class on April 5, 2012 with Perry Raso of Matunuck.

Class is from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM and is $35 per person.


Life Aquatic: Adventures in Oyster Farming Perry Raso started his first shellfish business as a teen. These
days, he’s the proprietor of the Matunuck Oyster Farm and the very busy Matunuck Oyster bar. In his “spare time,” Perry travels to Africa and Asia, teaching aquaculture as a means of boosting healthy seafood stocks, creating jobs in coastal regions, and restoring depleted fish species. Join this master waterman for a fascinating
talk on sustainability, community and innovation, as Perry recounts his adventures a sea and abroad, and shares his signature Matunuck oysters.
