WHAT:     The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall will be
          served Drake's Bay oysters at a luncheon following a visit

          Drake's Bay Oyster Company, formally Johnson's Oyster
          Company, has recently reestablished their tasty inventory
          since the farm changed hands to the neighboring Lunny
          family. Drake's Bay Oysters, in addition to its partner
          Lunny Ranch, specialize in local sustainable farming. The
          Lunny Ranch grows artichokes and certified organic and
          grass-fed beef on the first certified organic pastures in
          Marin County; these also will be available at the Point
          Reyes Farmer's Market.
