Witness a remarkable iridescent product of nature as it emerges from the indigenous Washboard mussel. Tennessee’s Official State Gem - the freshwater pearl - is rarely found naturally from these living animals, but grown at the

only freshwater pearl-culturing farm operation in the North American continent. The organic gem stone-culturing operation is nestled in the pristine embayment of Birdsong Creek - just off the scenic Tennessee River’s beautiful Kentucky Lake - in Camden, West Tennessee, 9 miles north of Interstate 40 at Exit 133/Birdsong Exit.
