Dave’s signature “Cultured Clams” and “Capers Blades” oysters are often described by Chefs and foodies alike as world class shellfish, owing to the innovative and sustainable processes to which his products are treated.   Shipping direct to customers across the country, Clammer Dave’s clientele include some of the industries most noted Chefs, restaurants, resorts and food festivals.

Having recently acquired a food processing plant, 2012 will bring about an increase in services to the specialty and gourmet food markets. With his network of like-minded fisherman and producers, customers will see a variety of additional products adhering to the strict environmental and quality standards on which his business was founded.
