Our Farm. Our Legacy.
Purcell's Seafood, founded in 1972 by Warren Purcell along the serene shores of Virginia's Little Wicomico River, quickly became renowned for its dedication to oyster harvesting. Embracing sustainable aquaculture practices under the stewardship of the Harding family, Purcell's has evolved to enhance local oyster populations while preserving our waterways. Today, our family's commitment to excellence and community remains strong, reflected in every oyster we produce.
At Purcell's Seafood, we offer more than just fresh oysters; we provide a taste of Virginia's rich maritime heritage. Cultivated with meticulous care, our farm-raised oysters meet high standards of quality and flavor, making them a favorite among local and national chefs who prioritize sustainability. Join us in celebrating Virginia's coastal waters with every delicious oyster from Purcell's Seafood.
