Maine
Pristine Waters Downeast.
Maine is a special place, especially for seaweed. The cold clean waters of downeast Maine create ideal growing conditions for a large variety of seaweeds. Our coastal communities are rooted in the traditions of living from the sea and encompass a great respect for our marine resources. Sustainably farmed seaweed from Maine is arguably the finest seaweed in the world. We are committed to supporting our local Maine communities.

Our Company
'Springtide' in old English means 'springtime'. This is harvest season for the seaweed crop. A spring tide is also the time when the tide "springs forth" during the new and full moon, giving us the highest and lowest tides of the month.
Springtide Seaweed operates the largest organic seaweed farm in North America in Down East Maine, cultivating some of the finest seaweeds in the world for people and the planet.
We also operate a state of the art USDA Organic seaweed nursery and processing facility in Gouldsboro, Maine.
