Delicious. Sustainable.
Maine Gold™ mussels look unique and taste delicious, and are helping to sustain Maine’s wild and rope grown mussel fisheries.
Maine Gold™ mussels are born in a hatchery to parents carefully selected from rare wild strains to produce their beautiful, delicate shells and plump meats. We can reliably grow mussels on our ocean farm without depleting the wild fishery.
What Chefs are saying...
“Maine Gold™ mussels have a wonderful, unique taste are the perfect addition to our Maine-focused menu. Knowing that these are a sustainable option for the future of Maine’s fishermen makes the choice that much better for our restaurant.”

GROWN IN THE COLD, CLEAN WATERS OF EASTERN MAINE.
Unlike mussels derived from wild seed, we have the ability to “plant” seed on our ropes, rather than wait for nature to do the job.This means larger harvests over more months of the year, and a more secure supply.
Grown on a 25-year old mussel farm in the cold, clean waters of eastern Maine, this high value product is only available from Blue Hill Bay Mussels.
