From Missouri to California Oyster King in Drake's Bay
In 1935 Charlie Johnson fled drought and fire in Missouri and later built a thriving West Coast oyster farm near Bolinas California. He and his sons harvest about 5400 dollars worth of oysters clams and scallops weekly, aided by rack system methods he helped pioneer. Johnson says he is among the last successful commercial oystermen in California and notes the high survival rate of rack-grown oysters versus traditional beds.
