About Us

4.9 (76 reviews)
We’re a small worker owned cooperative run by women who began with a dream of farming seaweed. We say “This is What Climate Resilience Tastes Like” because seaweed embodies the qualities of a climate resilient resource- it is abundant, renewable, fast growing, and needs no fresh water or fertilizer to grow. Seaweed also sequesters carbon and nitrogen, improving the marine ecosystems where it grows! Collectively, our team has spent decades harvesting and using seaweed in our daily lives. This curriculum has taken years to develop which places high priority on the mindful, responsible harvesting methods that we use. We want everyone to enjoy and immerse themselves in seaweed and become stewards of these extremely special places. We put the ocean first in everything we do. It is with great honor, privilege and gratitude that we offer the experiences we do in order to grow our mindful seaweed foraging community.

Jack was an excellent guide. Super passionate about all things kelp and sustainability. I learned so much and feel more confident about foraging seaweed on my own next time.

I had a wonderful experience during our foraging adventure. Jack was friendly, knowledgeable and courteous. I had no idea how many beautiful different types of seaweed grow on our central coast, right at our feet. As our group waded through the shallow waters, Jack provided education and tasting opportunities. I was surprised at the variety of flavors and textures the seaweed offered in just this one location. Many thanks for a memorable adventure!

Fantastic introduction to the abundance of tasty seaweeds! Our daughter and I had a great experience. Not only did the tour identify and enable us to taste beautiful, flavorful seaweeds and kelp. It also explained much about intertidal life. Jules even showed us a parent fish guarding eggs. At the end, we enjoyed seaweed broth and delicious seaweed flavored popcorn.

We had lots of fun, learned a lot, and in no time at all we were tasting various seaweeds and happily hunting for them in the tide pools. Very worthwhile!
