The Accomack-Northampton PDC is part of the Chesapeake Oyster Alliance, a coalition of non-profits, oyster growers, academic institutions, and others committed to adding 10 billion new oysters in the Bay by 2025.

It is only with a healthy oyster population that a restored Chesapeake Bay is possible. Through this partnership with the Chesapeake Oyster Alliance, efforts are being made to improve water quality, provide education and resources on Bay-friendly public policy, engage new stakeholders, and drive economic benefits across the region.
