California oysters from the Carlsbad Aquafarm at the Hollywood Farmers' Market
On our way back out of San Diego, we decided to try and visit the Carlsbad Aquafarm. I’d seen them before at the Hollywood Farmers’ Market and while we were down south, they were on every menu of the places we enjoyed most (Stone Brewing World Bistro and The Linkery to be specific). I had read an article that said, quite clearly, that they gave public tours. Sadly, a quick phone call made on the road told us otherwise - no public access. But did we give up? Non! As we approached the exit, I decided that even though I wouldn’t be able to examine the harvest tanks and water testing facilities myself, I could probably get a decent peek at the farm from a safe and legal distance. How hard could it be?
