Fresh Sugar Kelp
One pound of hand-harvested fresh sugar kelp.
How this sea vegetables is made — and by whom.
A coastal Maine farm growing sugar kelp, dulse, and shore vegetables alongside heritage potatoes and wild lowbush blueberries on granite-ledge fields overlooking Blue Hill Bay.
Blue Hill, Maine — the country around Blue Hill, where the soil, weather, and water shape what comes out of the ground. This product can only taste the way it does because it's from here, and nowhere else.
Picked at ripeness by the family and their crew, sorted on the packing bench the same morning, and packed into the basket in the order things came in from the field — no cold storage, no gas ripening, no supermarket middle.
The farm basket rotates with the fields — spring greens and asparagus, high-summer tomatoes and stone fruit, autumn roots and squash, winter citrus and hardy brassicas.
Long, tender fronds harvested from lines in Blue Hill Bay. Use in broth, blanched salads, or as a wrap for baked fish.
