Description

Shop, slurp and stroll through Downtown Westminster! This annual festival features local oyster farmers, live entertainment (Amish Outlaws), delicious food and a lot of fun for the whole family! This event is designed to raise awareness about Chesapeake Bay farm-raised oysters and highlights how Westminster is working to restore wild oysters back into the Bay by working with environmental partners to create new oyster reefs from recycled oyster shells and concrete reed balls. All proceeds benefit the Coastal Conservation Association and Chesapeake Bay Foundation. Entrance gates are located at Center Street, Longwell and Main, Locust Lane, and John/Bond.
