“In 1962, President John F. Kennedy created the Point Reyes National Seashore with the understanding that some existing businesses, including the oyster farm, would have to leave within 50 years. The cannery—which changed ownership several times over the years before being purchased by owner Kevin Lunny in 2004—had won high praise for its sustainability. And Bay Area foodies appreciated locally grown oysters. But in November 2012, Ken Salazar, as Secretary of the Interior, decided that Drakes Bay Oyster had to go. And that’s when Lunny quickly found that politics makes for truly strange oyster-bedfellows.”
