Barnstable Sea Farms Oyster Tour

Do you love local oysters? Learn all about these amazing shellfish from their anatomy to their role in the ecosystem and local conservation efforts. After a brief indoor presentation on oyster basics, you’ll venture out with Mass Audubon naturalists and Barnstable Sea Farms employees for a low-tide, guided walking tour of a working oyster farm on the tidal flats at Long Pasture Wildlife Sanctuary!
