Washington Sea Grant (WSG) Deputy Director Kate Litle welcomes participants; WSG Symposium Coordinators Meg Chadsey & Nicole Naar provide an overview an orientation for participants.
Only a handful of seaweed farms and restoration projects have been permitted in Washington, but there is no shortage of interest in –and questions about– the future of seaweed cultivation in our shared waters. The Washington seaweed community needs reliable information to make informed choices about this future. Constituents also need to recognize where the available information is incomplete or unreliable. Through this symposium, Washington Sea Grant aims to move the community towards a shared understanding of what is known, and what is not known, about seaweed farming and what it could look like.
