Seed is one of the highest costs farmers shoulder, both in its price and its impact on yield. When seed quality varies, productivity throughout the entire season can suffer. GreenWave is taking the guesswork out of seed production, developing tools like a nursery-in-a-box—a modular, shippable system built to deliver reliable, high-quality seed at lower cost.

In response to challenges in Alaska, GreenWave organized a three-day seed quality workshop, convening seven of the state’s active nurseries to align on shared practices, troubleshoot challenges, and adapt the SOPs for the region’s unique conditions. Hosted at the Prince William Sound Science Center with support from Alaska Sea Farms and funding from the Southeast Conference (SEC) and Alaska Sea Grant, the event marked the first time the majority of Alaska’s operators gathered to tackle shared obstacles and plan for the future of seed.

Kelp is a regenerative powerhouse, but turning that potential into real product innovation remains a challenge for brands across food, beauty, and personal care. In partnership with Unilever Foundry and ingredient supplier Macro Oceans, GreenWave’s Kelp CoLab will bring together brands to accelerate the use of and demand for kelp-based ingredients.
