This Emmy award-winning documentary explores the oyster’s role both in our world and its own. Ashore, oysters are a beloved delicacy and a way of life for generations of people. Below the waves, oysters have long been the silent protectors of the oceans. They are a keystone species that filter and clean vast volumes of water.
The freshwater of the Apalachicola River, which originates in the Blue Ridge Mountains, is the driver of productivity for the Apalachicola Bay. As background on the connectivity of the River, Flooplain, and Bay, here is a short 12-minute film.
Want to understand even more on connectivity? Watch this film that documents the profound changes in historic flow patterns that have led to decreased flows in the late spring and summer of most years, harming the vast wetland forests bordering the Apalachicola River.
Thank you for your care of the Apalachicola River, its vast floodplain, and the Apalachicola Bay! Let's keep working together to protect and restore this dynamic, connected system.
