It is quite amazing the vast amount of resources and information that is available around ocean farming and particularly, seaweed cultivation.
Here's a selection of websites, videos, podcasts, and articles around aquaculture. These will be added to as more resources come to hand.
The principle resource or 'go to' for our project is Greenwave.
They are an American, nonprofit organisation whose goal is to "support 10,000 farmers, catalysing the scaled planting of regenerative ocean crops to yield meaningful economic and climate impacts."
Visit their website at www.greenwave.org for more information. You will be amazed at what resources they make, all free of charge on an 'open source' basis. Join the Ocean Farming Hub which is a free seed-to-sale training program designed by and for ocean farmers - www.greenwave.org/hub
