Come feast on delicious wild oysters with SCWF and help raise funds for coastal wildlife conservation! Natural habitat is disappearing at an alarming rate, and local wildlife need our help to conserve and restore the woods, waters, and wetlands on which they depend. 

Ticket sales are now live for SCWF’s oyster roast fundraiser at the iconic Bowens Island in Charleston on Sunday, November 1oth from 5:00-7:00 pm! There will be fresh, delicious oysters, beer & wine, vegetarian options, and a raffle. If you haven’t been to Bowens Island yet, come check out this unique location that is a local favorite known for fresh seafood and a laid back atmosphere, right on the marsh.

Plus you are doubling your impact for conservation since Bowens Island restaurant participates in SCDNR’s oyster shell recycling program, so our used oyster shells will be returned to the environment to build new reefs!
