About Evening Cove Oysters Ltd.
Founded by Andrew Dryden, a first-generation oyster farmer who grew up in the interior of BC and graduated from the Fisheries and Aquaculture program at Malaspina College (now VIU). Started in his early 20s with his parents co-signing for waterfront property, defying skeptics who gave him six months before failing. Now owns 8 oyster tenures ranging the east coast of Vancouver Island from Cortes to Saltspring.
