I have been to this oyster farm a couple of years ago - should still be there I think:
Blau Oyster Company
11326 Blue Heron Road
Bow, WA 98232 Tel: 360-766-6171
I remember it is I-5 Exit 236 then go west (opposite side of the casino)

so, you pick the oyster and eat right there?

cllo

whens is good time to go??

It looks far on the map but it's only 20 minutes drive if you know the way - you have to get to the water to eat the oyster rite? They live in the sea!
Yes you can eat right there and you can buy bags of it home. The best months are those with an "R" like Septmber, October etc.

Just a bit additional info on that oyster place - it has a store front but it is not a place for you to sit down and enjoy the oysters like in a restaurant. They will teach you how to open the oyster and you can buy & sample a few and that's about it. After all it is an oyster farm so not much facilities for tourists.  Also if you want to buy them home it's better to buy it on the way back to Vancouver unless you have a large cooler with ice in your trunk. But the oysters are fresh and yummy.
