Questions about seaweed identification, the fermentation process, or placing an order? Email me directly. I handle everything personally — there's no team, no support queue. Just me, in Roberts Creek.

Just Gerald Seaweed Company is a ground-up, home-based operation in Roberts Creek, BC. I rinse fresh Saccharina latissima and ferment it myself using a slow process I've developed over years of experimentation.
Twenty-five years of being out on this shore, paying attention. The science and the products come from the same place — the same coastline, the same hands, the same slow process.
Whether you have questions about seaweed identification, want to know more about the fermentation process, or are ready to order — just email me. I read and reply to everything myself.
I use Saccharina latissima (Sugar Kelp) from the BC coast near Roberts Creek. It's the species I know best and the one I've built my fermentation process around. The products work across the full Pacific Northwest — from Zone 6b in the BC and Washington interior to Zone 9a along the coast.
Anywhere from 2 to 6 months, depending on the batch. I use a slow, anaerobic fermentation — no shortcuts. The extended time is part of what gives the extract its character.
I use fresh Saccharina latissima with no synthetic additives. I'm a small home operation and not currently certified organic, but the process is entirely natural from start to bottle.
The foliar spray is applied as a fine mist directly to leaf surfaces — ready to use, no dilution. The root drench is a more concentrated preparation applied to the root zone and soil. Same source kelp, same fermentation process, different concentrations and applications.
I currently ship within British Columbia and to Washington and Oregon. Email me to discuss other Pacific Northwest regions or further afield.
