Reported byRewilding Europe ↗·Sourced by Goodlede

What backs it

Dutch start-up Oyster Heaven, supported by a 100,000-euro loan from Rewilding Europe Capital in 2024, has established Europe's largest restored oyster reef in Project Asta (Veerse Meer lagoon, Netherlands). The company's patented 'Mother Reef' system deploys modular clay structures seeded with juvenile native European flat oysters to restore self-sustaining reef ecosystems that provide habitat for hundreds of marine species, cleaner water, erosion control, and healthier fisheries.
