About Us

Long time Santa Barbara locals, The Cultured Abalone Farm established in 1989 and is located at the historic Rancho Dos Pueblos along the Gaviota coast of Santa Barbara County. Today, we raise red abalone from hatchery to the harvest, ranch purple sea urchins, and tumble culture red seaweed. In addition to serving premium seafood nationwide, we are involved with a number of conservation efforts, restoring abalone along the California coast and bringing balance back to our kelp forest ecosystems.
