New Jersey-grown oysters are showing up more and more in markets and on menus as a major industry that was completely wiped out in the first half of the 20th century slowly makes a comeback.
News 12's Brian Donohue followed his tastebuds to the waters of Barnegat Bay where the brother and sister team of Jordan Lo Pinto and Katie Lo Pinto Gross are giving a new definition to the term "family farm" with Tuckers Island Shellfish.
The farm started five years ago and is now harvesting about 20,000 oysters weekly. It's a story of recovery, resilience, recovery - and deliciousness.
