Description

Shell-A-Bration is a community event dedicated to raising awareness and engagement for the Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana’s Oyster Shell Recycling Program, which collects shells from New Orleans restaurants to restore oyster reefs and shoreline habitat in coastal Louisiana and is the only program of its kind in the state. Shell-A-Bration brings together our restaurant partners, sponsors, community members, stakeholders and oyster lovers for a night of celebrating coastal restoration. Launched in June 2014, this program has become one of the largest shell recycling programs in the nation. As of December 2022, CRCL has collected over 12.5 million pounds of shell from local restaurants to build five oyster reefs.
