Previously one had to prepare the food where the event was to be held or at caterers or restaurants. This has been helpful for the Cape Charles Historical Society’s Oyster Roast and Shrimp Boil, where the word “homemade” is part of the food offerings and the Museum is not a place where food should be prepared.

I can tell you from personal experience, if all the current regulations had been in effect back in 1985, there would NOT be a Blue Crab Bay Co. We are celebrating our 30th year and going through the headaches of preparing for full FDA compliance as we speak! Thanks for taking on this challenge for other potential entrepreneurs on the Eastern Shore of VA and beyond.
