SUMMARY:Low Low Tides and Seaweed Symposium at Smithereen Farm
DESCRIPTION:April 20-21:\nJoin the Smithereen Farm team for early-morning harvest and drying of native seaweeds! Bring a wetsuit if you have one.

People from away are welcome to book a campsite on HipCamp to be close to the action. \nApril 22nd:\nHarvest overview and guidance by longtime time harvester Kacie Loparto. Join in the water for harvest and drying of wild kelp. RSVP required! \nKanae Tokunaga\, a Japanese researcher of artisanal kelp traditions and economies will present about the high value products and supply chains in different regions of Japan. Drawing lessons from her research in Japanese seaweed harvesting\, market\, and processing\, and in Maine’s seafood supply chain\, she will cover several topics\, including: How different species of seaweeds are harvested\, processed\, and marketed in Japan\, Advantages of co-management and co-marketing in coastal fisheries and aquaculture\, Roles of coastal fisheries and aquaculture in coastal ecosystem service values. \nA presentation of the new Maine Seaweed Council seaweed wild-harvest guidelines by longtime industry leader Shep Erhart. \nLocation: 767 Leighton Point Rd\, Pembroke\, ME \nRegistration link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdo_lu__x_CHo-ZCmp-YAAB66bGWbBQnidv1a1_Q_d5sBxJJA/viewform

SUMMARY:Seaweed ID Beach Walk
DESCRIPTION:TIME CHANGE!! NEW TIME IS 9:00-10:30 AM. \nThe Seaweed Week species ID beach walk is back for our 5th annual event! \nHow many species of seaweed are there in Maine? Do seaweeds change with the season? What even is seaweed? \nDive into these questions and more at this species-identification workshop and beach walk\, hosted by Maine Sea Grant’s seaweed specialist\, Jaclyn Robidoux. \nWe’ll explore the intertidal zone at low tide near Two Lights State Park and learn to identify edible seaweed species native to the Gulf of Maine. Discover the ecology and diversity of seaweeds\, while learning about the environmental benefits these species provide in coastal habitats. We’ll discuss sustainable harvest\, Maine’s growing seaweed farming industry\, and the role this versatile resource plays in Maine’s marine economy. Bring your seaweed questions and we’ll provide the field guides! \nRSVP here! \nIMPORTANT NOTE\nWe’ll be moving through slick and rocky terrain. Please wear proper foot gear (rubber boots/shoes with good traction that may get wet). It can be colder and more windy on the ocean. Dress accordingly for a few hours in the Maine outdoors. \nDIRECTIONS\nLocation: Dyer Cove\, Cape Elizabeth\, ME. Follow directions to Two Lights State Park in Cape Elizabeth\, ME. To get to Dyer Cove\, bear left at the fork right before the park entrance and follow to the public parking lot at the end of Two Lights Road (right near The Lobster Shack).
