Oyster farmers across the Camden Haven and Hastings are looking forward to a promising season after rebuilding following the March 2021 flood that wiped out a large percentage of stock and damaged equipment.

Owner of Armstrong Oysters, Brandon Armstrong, said their entire season was impacted last year.

"We were hit the hardest we've ever been by the March flood. We lost a lot of infrastructure and oysters," he said.

"The ongoing rain prior to the flood in Match also impacted our season and we pretty much lost the Christmas and Easter period."

They were also impacted by a number of river closures.

"Oysters go out of season around April and we lost that chance earlier this year during the season," Mr Armstrong said.

Oyster farmers are now preparing for the busy Christmas period, with harvesting set to begin in the coming weeks.

Mr Armstrong said they are looking forward to the upcoming season.

"We're getting ready to start harvesting in early November. We're excited to be producing high quality oysters and the season should run through until Easter next year."

"It's coming at the perfect time with the state opening up again and people being able to travel again."

"We're hoping there will be a high demand over the next few months."
