The future of Food, Feed, Fertilizer and Fuel…

An Ocean of Opportunity

Welcome to Equa Ocean Farms!

We are very excited to share our locally grown kelp – and our cultivation experience – with our customers and community. We aim to raise awareness of the many benefits of kelp, both as a nutritional food source and its contributions as a solution to climate change.

We look forward to growing with you 🙂

Gourmet Canadian Seaweed

Seaweeds offer many possible uses and benefit both people and the planet.  We are focused on cultivating kelp for human consumption.  Kelp has many nutritional benefits, plus, a flavour that has been described as the fifth taste, “umami.” It is a true superfood!

All of our kelp is cultivated in the pristine waters of the Salish Sea and processed locally, helping to secure local food security while contributing to local communities and ecosystem.
