Circle C is constantly innovating. From the simple to the complex.
Here are a few examples. 
These Floating Oyster Reefs® produce about 2.5 bushels of oysters in one season. Each one takes about 15 minutes per year to maintain while they are in the water. 2 Our Selective Breeding program has produced results! 
Anyone who has ever bred animals knows how much time and dedication it takes to improve a blood line. So it is with oysters. 3 This simple pipe rig above our lift. Helps us empty all the oysters from a float at once! 
The float lift shown at left allows us to bring an entire float up to work bench height. The pipe rack above it allows us to empty its entire contents by meerly attaching the float to it on one side and dropping the platform out from under it. 4 These tanks are used to raise seed oysters. This design cut labor from 80 to 4.5 hours a week. 
The seed oysters raised in the upwellers above are in buckets. We only have to roll the bucket over on it's discharge pipe spindle to clean or change the screen. Our newest inovation (not shown for obvious reasons) cut the time we spend on our seed production by another 90%. Our more important inventions are patented.
 Our patents have extensive possibilites.
