Description

In this episode of Upwell, we chat with Zoe Croft, the director of sales at Atlantic Sea Farms, whose team is helping fishermen in Maine grow seaweed to diversify their incomes as climate change and warming waters present challenges to the state’s lobster industry. Zoe shares how the gulf of Maine is warming faster than 99% of all other bodies of water on the planet, how her team at Atlantic Sea Farms is working with 27 partner farmers to grow nearly one million pounds of kelp, and how growing that seaweed has a positive impact on the surrounding marine ecosystem. You can find Zoe on LinkedIn, and you can learn more about Atlantic Sea Farms on their website, Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn.
