PSRF provides our local shellfish gardeners clean, healthy seed from a certified source. Learn how to become a shellfish gardener!

Seed Sale is June 13, 2026! 

DATE/TIME:

Seed Sale will take place June 13, 2026 from 8:00-11:00 am to coincide with a favorable late-morning low tide for planting.

LOCATION & PICK-UP:

Drive-through collection will take place at the Puget Sound Restoration Fund office at 8001 NE Day Road W, Bainbridge Island, WA. You will receive an email with your assigned pick-up window prior to the sale.

**All seed must be picked up on June 13th as PSRF is unable to hold seed beyond this date.**

TO PURCHASE SEED AND GEAR:

  • Items available for purchase are in the Online Order Form to the right. Review the descriptions for details about each item.
  • Select the quantity of the items you wish to purchase, then click “Add” (items will appear in your cart automatically)
  • Check out our new PSRF logo merchandise—show your support for clean, healthy waters with PSRF-branded sweatshirts, tees, beanies, and totes!
  • If you include a donation to PSRF during checkout, a separate donation tax receipt will automatically be generated and sent via email.
  • When you have selected all of your items, scroll down to the bottom of the Order Form, and click “Continue” to review your cart and check out.
  • REQUIRED AT CHECKOUT: You must provide the physical planting location (street address or parcel/lot number). We must collect this information as your purchase is covered under PSRF’s transfer permit—ensuring your seed comes with a verified clean bill of health.
  • PAYMENT METHODS: Payment can be made with a credit card or directly through your bank account.
  • OPTIONAL PROCESSING FEES: Our payment processor, Zeffy, automatically includes an optional contribution to “Help keep Zeffy free for Puget Sound Restoration Fund.” This is NOT a donation to PSRF. If you do not wish to cover processing fees, simply select “OTHER” from the dropdown menu to remove the optional amount from your total.
  • After completing your purchase, you will receive an email receipt confirming your order. We’ll have your order on file at pickup, but saving a copy on your phone or bringing a printed copy is recommended.

Online orders are preferred to reduce processing time, but if you wish to submit your order manually or pay by check, you may download and fill out this order form, then email it to Wendy Welch at wendy@restorationfund.org.

SEED SALE – ONLINE ORDER FORM

PSRF Provides Local Gardeners with State-Certified Shellfish Seed

  • All of our shellfish seed is sourced from state-certified supplier: Taylor Shellfish Farms.
  • Seed should only be purchased from certified, approved sources. Uncertified seed can introduce disease or invasive species into local waters.
  • Grocery store-bought oysters should never be placed on the beach. Shellfish with unknown origins or from outside your area—even from another basin within Washington—may carry harmful pathogens.
  • Oysters must be shucked on the tideland where found. It is illegal to discard oyster shells from your seafood plate or from the seafood market on Washington beaches or into state waters.

Thank you for sourcing responsibly and following all guidelines to help protect our local waters!
