The Everglades Farm is bringing new life to Florida's oyster industry, with their oysters making it to the tables of Michelin-starred restaurants.
Despite initial reservations about eating oysters from a "swampy freshwater lake", people are discovering that they are delicious. From Miami's restaurant scene to the Everglades, there is a growing excitement about oysters.
"We have to focus on educating and combating this stigma or as we like to call it, prejudice,"
