Producer

Gulf of Maine, Inc.

Gulf of Maine, Inc. treats kelp as a named marine plant, not a vague seaweed. Its Sugar Kelp is sustainably hand-harvested from cold, clean Gulf of Maine waters, then air-dried naturally in a greenhouse. Nature’s timing sits in blade quality and preservation: salty-sweet flavor, minerals and coastal identity carried inland through whole leaf, flakes or powder for careful home cooking.
