TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) Because of a dwindling oyster population, a Florida agency is expected to shut down oyster harvesting in Apalachicola Bay through the end of 2025, dealing a blow to an area that historically produced 90% of the state’s oysters and 10% of the nation’s.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is scheduled to vote on the closure Wednesday during a virtual meeting. People in the area are divided between coming up with a long-term plan to save the industry, and allowing it to continue on a limited basis.
“It breaks my heart, man. I’ve watched boats out there my whole life,” said Brandon Martina, who works at Lynn s Quality Oysters, a bayfront business his family has run since 1971. The business started out as a wholesale oyster-shucking house, but as supplies dwindled, they converted it into a retail seafood shop and restaurant.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Because of a dwindling oyster population, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission is shutting down oyster harvesting in Apalachicola Bay through the end of 2025, dealing a blow to an area that historically produced 90% of the state’s oysters and 10% of the nation’s.
FWC voted unanimously on the closure Wednesday during a virtual meeting. The decision came despite pleas from officials in Panhandle communities to cut the time to three years to protect the local oyster brand and to carve out a western portion of the bay used by locals to gather oysters.
