Cracking the shell of OysterFest

ST. MICHAELS — The sun was shining and the oysters were freshly shucked Saturday at the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum for the annual OysterFest. Near the end of the day, local water and oystermen sold out of oysters, which Vice President of Engagement at Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum Shannon Mitchell said is the “ideal outcome.” Roughly 3,500 attendees came out for the event. “It was a fantastic day. Well, for one, we couldn’t have asked for better weather,” Mitchell said. “Attendance was wonderful.” The festival aims to support watermen, educational programs and the organization’s exhibits, including its historic floating fleet. It also raises funds for the Talbot Watermen Association and its initiatives through a partnership in which the association serves as the festival’s primary oyster provider. “This event in particular is one that is very mission-driven for the organization,” Mitchell said. “It truly supports what we’re all about. If we wanted to sum it up of our entire mission of the organization, this is that mission kind of in action.” Beyond oysters, the event featured educational programming, Chesapeake Retrievers and rides aboard historic vessels, including the “Rosie Parks”. These activities let visitors experience the festival on land and from the

The Little-Known Maryland Village Where Blacksmiths And Old Workshops Make Time Stand Still

A towering old iron furnace still stands in the middle of a Maryland forest. Around it sits a tiny village where blacksmith demos and antique looms keep old skills alive. I love that an American chestnut tree has been spotted on the grounds. Those trees are incredibly rare now, so finding one feels like a bonus prize.
