“Seaweed” is the name collectively given to a wide variety of underwater vegetation. It grows around the world in both fresh and saltwater ecosystems where it creates habitat for other aquatic species, absorbs carbon dioxide, and can even protect coastlines from erosion.

A wide variety of seaweeds are now farmed in the ocean, which means we can use seaweed in our products without harvesting it from sensitive habitats. When farmed in the ocean, seaweed is a naturally low-impact ingredient.
