Join the North Carolina Coastal Federation this fall in the scenic gardens of the New Hanover County Arboretum for our 2025 oyster roast, A Roast for the Coast! Gather with friends for a classic oyster roast with steamed local North Carolina oysters as well as a low-country boil, vegetarian options, and other southern favorites. Registration includes two drink tickets for wine or beer, plus unlimited non-alcoholic beverages. 

Proceeds from this event will support the Federation’s local efforts to restore our native oysters, including recycling oyster shells to support new oyster reefs coastwide, and restoring new local reefs in the lower Cape Fear River. This event is rain or shine, so please dress for the weather!
