Mar Seafood offers a variety of hard-shell clams including little necks, top necks, cherrystones, and chowders. The species of “mercenaria mercenaria” is found along the Atlantic coasts, ranging from Virginia to Nova Scotia. All of our hard-shell clams are harvested through a dredging or a hand raked method that have both been proven to be environmentally sustainable for our New England waters. The manner of harvesting hard shell clams produces no by-catch and creates no significant habitat damage. Once harvested, our product is cleaned, graded by size, and bagged to meet the specifications of our customers.
