12 Sep 2022 --- Researchers at Uconn extension, College of Agriculture, Health and Natural Resources, are increasing the accessibility of the superfood seaweed. The team is looking to expand the supply and demand for sugar kelp, a seaweed species, by providing research and community outreach. As it stands, sugar kelp is not widely accessible in Connecticut, US, nor is it highly desired by consumers. The researchers want to change that and demonstrate to farmers and buyers that sugar kelp is a healthy and environmentally sustainable food option.
