The Blue Point oyster which originates in Long Island’s Great South Bay, about 60 kilometers (40 miles) from New York City, is making a comeback after almost disappearing from the world marketplace. Over-farming, pollution and then Superstorm Sandy destroyed the Blue Point oyster business. It has taken initiative and risk to bring the well-known mollusk back. VOA’s Bernard Shusman reports on this comeback from East Islip, New York.
