Welcome to Drakes Bay Family Farms

As stewards of the land, our practices are driven by a deep respect for the earth and the waters of the Estero ecosystem. The farms provide jobs, housing, and income to many locals, and are a significant part of the history and diversity of this thriving agricultural community.

We promise that we will provide you and your family with products of only the highest quality produced in the most humane, local and sustainable manner possible.

Our Drakes Bay Oysters and other seafood are raised in the most pristine body of water quality of any growing area in the state of California. A deep-water upwelling just off the coast of Drakes Bay provides cool, nutrient rich water year-round to Drakes Estero. This uniquely pristine water produces what are recognized as some of the finest oysters in the world.

The Lunny Ranch produces certified grass-fed beef and beef products. Our certified organic pastures are situated in the heart of the Point Reyes National Seashore, with the Pacific Ocean bordering one side of the ranch and Drakes Estero bordering the opposite side. We like to think our fresh, marine environment and excellent pasture productivity makes our beef the best you will ever taste.

Dianne Feinstein Weighs In

Senator Feinstein writes in to the Marin Independent Journal: "Accurate, objective science should guide environmental policy, and when science has acknowledged problems, it should never be used to make decisions. There is no guarantee that any given study is perfect, but we should all agree that decisions based on science we know to be flawed is a stark violation of the public trust."
