The Chesapeake Bay Field Lab (CBFL) is a non-profit organization providing environmental tours for students and groups on one of Maryland''s last Skipjacks and from an operational oyster shucking house on St. George Island in the Potomac River.

• We inspire future generations to be stewards of the bay.
• We share the experiences of the watermen, their culture and lore.
• We offer a view of the health of the bay, through the eyes of the oysters and crabs.

Shoreside Discovery Lab and Skipjack classes operating April through November. Facility available for educational, community and civic meetings and/or classes. Become a member!
