Cascadia Seaweed is an AgTech Company based in BC dedicated to addressing climate change and food security. We cultivate local species of seaweed on low-impact ocean farms in partnership with coastal First Nations. We then harvest that seaweed and manufacture biostimulants and agrifeed supplements for land-based farmers that reduce emissions and increase yields. As a certified B Corp and registered Benefit Company in British Columbia, Cascadia Seaweed is committed to building a profitable and scalable business that our team members, shareholders, and business partners can take pride in.

Join Mike Williamson, CEO of Cascadia Seaweed, in an interactive discussion about integrating seaweed-derived agricultural inputs into small and large-scale production to improve yields, reduce costs and mitigate the effects of climate change on food security.
