Hand Foraged Seaweed through Freediving.
All the seaweed in these products has been hand-foraged on the south Devon coast through free diving. I am very conscious that we need to explore sustainable ways to find nutrients that are supportive to our ecosystems. Seaweed is an extraordinary superfood in that respect. It contains most of the nutrients that fish do and, in some circumstances, more so. All the seaweed I have gathered has been sustainably hand cut by me and not torn – this allows for maximum regrowth.
I dive regularly when the weather is obliging and dive mostly at a new and full moon to access the highest potential energy in the foraged seaweed. It also helps me to catch the low tides as they allow me to go further out, away from the shore to reach the freshest untouched seaweed. Working with the natural cycles of the moon and therefore the sea helps us to connect more to the natural ebbs and flows of nature, this in itself has wonderful health benefits.
I hope you enjoy this offering from the sea.
