Get an insider’s look at our vibrant working farm and the processes that produce sustainable seafood. Located just 20 minutes north of Santa Barbara, our farm is nestled between the beautiful Gaviota Coast and Santa Ynez mountains. Tours are presented in partnership with Dos Pueblos Institute.



Tours are offered on Saturdays and may sell out in advance. The dates shown are the next available dates. Hope to see you at the farm soon!
