Whiskey Creek Shellfish Hatchery, located in Tillamook, OR, is a renowned shellfish hatchery that has been operating since 1978. With a strong focus on producing oyster, clam, and mussel larvae, as well as small clam and mussel seed, they are one of the largest hatcheries on the west coast. Their commitment to high health standards is evident through their adherence to guidelines and rigorous disease analysis, ensuring top-quality products. With USDA certification for export, they also cater to international customers, making them a trusted supplier in the industry.
Founded by Lee Hanson, Whiskey Creek Shellfish Hatchery started as a small-scale operation with seven larvae tanks. However, it quickly gained success and expanded its operations, now operating out of three buildings with over 40 larvae tanks. They are recognized as a major supplier of oyster larvae for the West Coast, and their diverse range of shellfish larvae offerings caters to various growing needs. While they do not sell oysters directly to the general public, they collaborate with Pearl Point Oysters, a local business that provides fresh oysters harvested daily from Netarts Bay.
