Farm sites

Where our longlines live — sheltered bays and open-ocean leases across three coasts.

Six sites, three coasts

We farm where the water is cold, clean, and moving — the three things kelp actually asks for. Each lease is a grid of longlines, spaced so the blades never shade each other out.

Why these spots

Depth keeps the lines below boat traffic and above the sediment. Current keeps nutrients moving past the blades. We visit every site by boat at least once a week, year-round.
