Such varied colours in this years mussel seed! Who knew bivalves could bring such joy 🦪🤗

[MOSSS @MOSSSNorthWales]

Slight swell at the site today 🌊 perfect weather for some routine maintenance! Collected some mussels to allow for density and growth assessment. Here’s an example of a seeded line ready to be stripped! #offshoremussel #offshoreshellfish #wales #mussels

[Philippa @philippabayford]

Hopefully the weather gods are kind this week and keep the winds at bay!! 💨 Looking forward to checking the offshore site and mussel seed quality/growth. Wondering what other beasties have settled on the ropes this year! 🦀 🐟 🦐 @MOSSSNorthWales #MusselMonday

Bivalves are just fab creature!!

[UK Seafood Innovation Fund @SeafoodFund]

In an #innovative approach to enhancing the #nutritional value of #shellfish, scientists from @Cambridge_Uni are working with #biotechnology company BioBullets to develop a method of fortifying #bivalve shellfish with micronutrients. Read more here 👀👉 https://t.co/YwbfQ0S4sQ

#Mussels have been cultivated for almost 800 years in #Europe, and have been #used as a food source for more then 20,000 years. In fact, #prehistoric settlements in the #UK can often be identified by the large mounds of mussel shells found nearby.

[The Shellfish Centre @shellfishcentre]

This #WorldOysterDay we are excited to announce we will be delivering the new #WildOysters project locally in River Conwy. Thanks to the players of @Postcodelottery, @OfficialZSL @Bluemarinef & @Britishmarine have been awarded £1.18m to recover #NativeOyster populations in the UK

I have seen some stunning sunsets over the years this has to be among the best, taken from the back deck of the Boat at Fleetwood last night.

[Philippa @philippabayford]

Today was just the best! Had a blast back out at sea! 🌊

[MOSSS @MOSSSNorthWales]

The MOSSS research team is happy to be back out at sea today checking on the offshore system. Here are some mussels which settled in 2019 growing well on the longline system! #offshoreshellfish #mussels #shellfishresearch
