Kelp Mitigation

Kelp Mitigation Projects:
The first seaweed farm in California aims to practice regenerative methods of kelp mitigation. This 1/4 acre ocean farm is about 25 feet deep and grows many different species of seaweed at different depths including Ogo, Sea Lettuce, and Giant Kelp. Sunken Seaweed collaborates with San Diego State University’s Kelp Ecology Lab and the Port of San Diego.
