A decade ago, on a whim, cousins Ryan and Travis Croxton decided to revive their family’s old oyster business. They knew nothing except how to grow oysters. That’s proved enough: Scores of restaurants now sell Rappahannock River Oysters, and as Travis Croxton quips: “We’ve succeeded in spite of ourselves.”

  • Great article!

    Just got back from several days in Irvington and ate my weight in RR oysters. The Croxton's are doing some amazing work. Love the Olde Salts.
