Suzie Flores and her husband Jay grow food-grade sugar kelp at Stonington Kelp Co. off the coast of Connecticut. They sell this seaweed to local restaurants and shops using a system with ropes that requires zero inputs like fertilizer. As it grows, the kelp absorbs carbon and nitrogen from the water and turns it into a nutrient-dense food.

Not only can seaweed farming increase food security, but it can also sequester carbon.
