Learn About Our Inspiring Journey
Some people spend years dreaming about a big change. We just went and did it.
We’re the Newton Family. A few years ago we traded in traffic jams boardrooms and the comfort of long established careers for something wilder, riskier, and infinitely more rewarding. Oyster farming in the remote waters of British Columbia.
None of us grew up by the sea. We were born and raised in the Fraser Valley of British Columbia. A short drive away from Vancouver BC. This is where we built our lives, had our children and climbed the ladders of two very different industries. Agricultural and Industrial Mining supply. After 20 years of mastering our respective trades, we found ourselves restless craving something that challenged us again. More than that we wanted a different kind of life, for our family. One that wasn’t dictated by city congestion and corporate meetings.
So with zero experience in Oyster farming, but the confidence of people who had already mastered one career, we dove in. We figured if we can navigate fertilizers, industrial piping and high stakes logistics, we could probably figure out Oystering. And we did.
Now three years in we’ve built a boutique oyster farm that reflects everything we were looking for – a hands on, meaningful way of life, a deep respect for the ocean, and a product we’re genuinely proud to share. Our kids are growing up in a place where the tides matter more than the morning commute, and we wouldn’t trade it for anything.
Sirens call is more than just our farm – Its our leap of faith, our adventure, our way for three generations to come closer together when busy lives keep others apart. Together we are bringing something pure and honest to the world.
if you have ever wondered what its like to chase a dream and get your hands a little salty in the process, well… we’d love to shuck with you.
About Our Farm
At sirens call shellfish we don’t just farm oysters – we cultivate a connection to the ocean. Raised in the remote untamed waters of the discovery islands our oysters are a reflection of their environment: clean, briny, and undeniably fresh.
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword for us – its the back bone of everything we do. Our unique grow out process allows us to cultivate a world class oyster while minimizing our impact on the ecosystems we grow in. We are committed to growing and harvesting responsibly to ensure the seas continue to thrive for generations to come.
Every oyster we pull from the tide is a testament to our dedication craftsmanship, and respect for the ocean. This isn’t just shellfish – its a polished taste of the wild, rugged coast we call home.
