Summary
Today we're going to be talking about kelp. Yep, seaweed. Alright. Kelp is not synonymous with seaweed, but they are related, and those in the know tend to use the terms interchangeably. The question we'll examine is this; is kelp one of the resources that will help sustain our planet and its ever-growing population in the future. My guest today is Liz McDonald. Liz is responsible for farming partnerships at Atlantic Sea Farms, a main base company working alongside fishing families on the coast of Maine to cultivate regenerative kelp, one of several hundred species of seaweed on open ocean sea farms. Based in Biddeford, Maine, the folks at Atlantic Sea Farms have grown to a point where they now represent the majority of farm seaweed in the United States.
