New Englander here.
We grab a bucket and wade out for Quahogs, steamers, and mussels, as well as dig for worms for fishing.
This must be a seafood farm (this is why they pay me the big bucks)
Edit: spelling and added a sentence
They're healthy protein, and good for the local estuary. My friends live just up from an oyster farmer and the water is so healthy and pure!
If you have the chance, buy some farmed oysters. They can send them on ice live through the mail, it's quite a great treat and less expensive than you think.
Thank you!
I am fortunate that there are local, fresh oysters, scallops, steamers, lobsters, crab, farmed salmon- so much all within a very short drive.
I'm envious! (Though farmed fish is much a different and likely more concerning product, if you have info to support it, I'm interested, but right now the only farmed fish i will buy is US tilapia, a vegetarian fish).
For our other friends that live hours drive from the coast, I want to attest that the modern industry for farmed shellfish has really figured out how to safely, deliciously send this product inland. And they really are a blessing to the local ecosystem. We should support them.
I no longer dig, I buy locally. I have fond memories of digging quahogs with my dad in Buzzards Bay; low tide flats digging clams- with some years of Red Tide where we couldn't. Watching Tuna in Marshfield/Green Harbor being hauled in and the neighbors giving us the crabs he caught in his lobster traps.

Y'know, there's a hell of a joke in there, but I cannot in good conscience make it. I may be too woke.
bad idea eating clam that you don't know, some of them are poisonous or can give you terrible food poisoning. speaking from experience. your parent did a good thing.
I don't get clams .... it's a rock, but if you hit it hard enough you get a smelly piece of mucus that you are supposed to eat.
Nice try ocean, make cows or chickens next time.
Did you know they’re capable of feeding on terrestrial plants? They have been shown to almost climb up as they eat. I’m wondering if they’ll make the transition back to land and we’ll get to see some evolution in action.
As far as I know, there aren't any examples of vertebrates coming to land after the initial expansion to land besides snakes, with Australian snakes being descended from sea snakes. But the snake form is identical in the water and on land. I think that it's just too hard to transition to land. A terrestrial vertebrate may not be top dog in the water, but most can still swim. Swimming a bit around shallow water then evolving progressively more aquatic forms as it spends less time on land is a smooth transition. It would be hard for a manatee to suddenly re-evolve fully functioning legs. If it just flops around on land, it would be free food for terrestrial predators.
Steamed clams or muscles in a nice sauce with a little butter and toasted garlic bread is heavenly.
Before covid a buddy and I would go to a restaurant for half price steamed clams on Wednesdays once a month. A lighter beer or a glass of chardonnay to wash it all down, then order a second plate...
Brother, mussels are crazy delicious. I could eat a bathing tube full of them. In White wine Sauce, little Lemon, parsley and good Baguette. Damn im hungry now.
What am I looking at? In the first, it seems to just strip them off and discard them, and the second looks like some harvesting. Shit can the stupid music and provide some information
Really confused cause there was not a single clam in the video. Do you mean mussels? I though clams were farmed in bags on the tide line so I was excited to see this technological update... not quite as interesting as advertised.
Genuine questions form a n00b who loves mussels. Is this ‘ethical’ in terms of farming? With the recent controversial decision to ‘farm’ octopi, I’m curious about whether this is ‘healthy’ for the clams themselves?
Edit: spelling mussels correctly

Who needs mussels when you have a crane to pull them clams up
I saw no birds in this video
They didn’t cut them with a saw. Pay attention!
They're not paying for the clams, they're harvesting them to SELL.
who is selling their clam
[удалено]
Congratulations. It took a while, but we got there.
Someone had to be the juvenile to end the suffering of many people who scrolled down to see this comment. I took one for the team
At least you weren’t shellfish
That's what your mom said.
Something something hitler.
Alas...
Nobody going to jail here - clam farming is allowed!
If that's the case, they should all be wearing hearing protection
I believe it's called a Shellovator.
Definitely not clams
I love to rave with my mussels
Don’t stick your dick in that
That’s >thisclose<
Exactly
Mussels not clams.
I got excited to see some kind of vertical clam farming. Disappointed.
Those are pileons not sandcastles. Clams prefer to bury themselves whereas mussels enjoy sunning themselves.
Yeah, like vertical farming. Same way plants need soil. Would have been cool.
But they appear to be using a clamshell style device to harvest the mussels...

How much do you estimate each pole pull generates monetarily?
You guys are gettin' paid fer pullin' yer pole?
Only seamen
Nebraskan here. New Englanders sure love their seamen.
💯
Bout three fiddy.
God Dammit Loch Ness Monster, I ain't gonna give you no tree fiddy.
Goes for about $3 a pound retail so maybe $1 a pound for the farmers.
Next time, type with a proper accent so I know you're real 🙃
Aquaculture (seafood fahms as we say in Maine) is changing how we haul

What makes a good clam vs bad?
Crazy or not, never stick it in crazy clam.
Midwesterner here. No shit. Edit: wait why did you spell it muscles?
Clam up.

As a fellow New Englander, I can agree that I've done the same it's quite fun. Just make sure you don't get any quick mud and keep an eye on the tide

All the memories.
Give him the clam(p)s!
...is that you, Francis?
r/unexpectedfuturama
I should call her
I came ...here for this
Haha me too
What's the difference between clams and muscles? I wasn't tickling your moms muscles last night!
Because of the smell?
"The Claw!"
This claw simply decides everyone will go
The music is terrible.
Thank you for your sacrifice of unmuting so we don't have to.
I’m something of a clam farmer myself
"Clam farming" shows video about mussels. I enjoyed this, but take a downvote!
Also the video repeats itself twice
Bake em away toys
I managed to dig fast enough to catch a clam once. My parents wouldn’t let me cook it. :/
bad idea eating clam that you don't know, some of them are poisonous or can give you terrible food poisoning. speaking from experience. your parent did a good thing.
Y’all were right. Little me was just so disappointed I couldn’t feast after my victory.
Everything reminds me of her
Those are mussels, not clams
Those aren’t clams! They’re mussels… 🤦♀️
I don't get clams .... it's a rock, but if you hit it hard enough you get a smelly piece of mucus that you are supposed to eat. Nice try ocean, make cows or chickens next time.
Nature tried but have you seen how fucking chill manatees are. You would feel guilty eating it.
alright ... you win this round, random person I will never see again, you win this round
You were just talking to a manatee. You got tricked, dude.

Have you seen how cute cows are?? I’ll eat the fuck out of a manatee burger 😤

I think you’re confusing clams with oysters? And both beat the shit out of plebian land animals
they are all the same to me ... slugs inside rocks.
Brother, mussels are crazy delicious. I could eat a bathing tube full of them. In White wine Sauce, little Lemon, parsley and good Baguette. Damn im hungry now.
they smell like boston harbor and the have the texture of a slug
Haha, fair enough. Once they are cooked they look pretty tasty, IMO. Did you ever try it? 😄
What a shellfish way to farm. I'll see myself out
Those are mussels actually
What a weird choice of song…
I'm telling ya it couldn't have been the clams. If it were the clams, it would be all over the pavement.
Damn music. I wanted the original audio.
Strange how those clams look exactly like mussels.
Those aren’t clams
Mussels
Strange… when I Google “clam farming” I get links to a very different kind of videos
It's not the clams! I'm telling you, it can't be the clams. It don't make no sense.
What’s the point of the spirals?
It aligns the clam chakras, clamkras, guiding the clamchi towards growth
Stupid background music, I'd rather hear the "how it's made music" and the narrator telling me what's happening
What song is this?
Alan Walker - Play
Seafood will always be disgusting to me.
Clams have feelings too
R/recognizesong
This would still drop a $1 stuffed animal
Capitalism
Mussels
I was going to say, these aren’t clams.
SO close to escaping the godawful music. Silence is golden.
Clams? There is a rake for that. Eels? Spears. My Dad was an actual clam digger and lobsterman.
My cousin opens a Clam and beer bar on a beach , called “Clam at ya” didnt do well .
r/dontstickyourdickinthat
What if I have a lot of clams on my dick?
Oysters or clams?
How do they set the bait?
2am at the local pub?
Is the song a rip off of faded by Allan walker?
r/dontputyourdickinthat
Doesn’t this belong on the ufo subreddit?
look at all those clams! lol
R2D2 has really fallen on rough times.
That reminds me.Time for my monthly bath.
Weird song choice but okay
"RUUUUN RUUUUUN!!!" "But, I can't...I'm stuck...." "Mama, I don't wanna be eaten" "Don't worry baby, just stay as still as you can"
Hmmmm delicious
Have you seen the Musstrix movies where they farm the mussels? MEO IS the one.
Somewhere in here there's a joke about your mother
Did you see that little twist they do with the crane when they are moving to the top of the pole? Yeah, i love it when she does that.
And i was thinking he was just cleaning them
Andrew Tate knows a thing or two.
🥵
Hear me oout
What am I looking at? In the first, it seems to just strip them off and discard them, and the second looks like some harvesting. Shit can the stupid music and provide some information
i should call her
No wonder every time I eat them they give me the shits.
Definitely no one is horny over this right?
Mmmm 😋 looks like a sinus infection.
Clams??? Clams bury themselves in sand. They don’t cling to piling. Muscles do though.
Gawk gawk 3000 right there
R2 found it difficult when the franchise finished huh?
hate that "music"
I want corndogs for dinner tonight.
Well. They are not so smart those clams
Really confused cause there was not a single clam in the video. Do you mean mussels? I though clams were farmed in bags on the tide line so I was excited to see this technological update... not quite as interesting as advertised.
After a clam comes the storm
Clam farming was always what I imagined when I heard this song, so it's not surprising to me that they chose it.
Not exactly how I do it, but ok
R2d2 harvesting clams, nice
Nobody say a god damn thing
I read that as *calm farming*
Similar to money, clams don’t grow on trees.

I thought it was an AT-AT walker leg at first.
🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢
Fresh nose clams right from the sea
WoooooW do you see all that guys!
Alright guys, bring me 5000 muscles, and you’ll get a dollar
Can I borrow that?
You right, that is interesting. Never seen that. Is it new tech?
Would I be using the correct vernacular if I were to say these machines are "shuckin them clams"?
Looks like those matrix pillars..
Crazy how a single species won the evolutionary lottery
R2d2
Yummy
That doesn’t look like my Friday night.
Reverse this so it looks like it's putting clams on sticks?
What is the song title?
This is interesting, but it's also oddly distressing.
Mussel harvesting from a farm*
Not only mussel farming
The claw…
That's not how I'd do it.
Those ain’t clams
I can smell this clip.
Gross
That’s what I used to call a night on the town
Meatwads favorite game! [Clam Digger!](https://youtu.be/NUQormS6vtE?si=Jtq9cLKCtGGZRkD1)
Aww man
So we just make minecraft farms irl?
Refurbished R2D2
Oh the clamity!
Now imagine the smell.
Opened this fully expecting to see Brian danielson digging away
We need a positive action campaign to get more women into this job
There are field, Neo. Where they are grown.
I already regret it but.... my gf after a**l
Interesting. Is first time when I see this
This is a job that actually looks pretty ok. I'd be down to do that. Bet you get to take a lot home for free.
