About Maine Coast Sea Vegetables:
Shep and Linnette Erhart went from wild-harvesting sea vegetables to make wonderful creations in their kitchen to sharing them with friends and neighbors. At a time when there were few companies in Maine harvesting seaweed to sell, Shep and Linnette founded Maine Coast Sea Vegetables in 1971. They participate in many admirable practices like community outreach and customer education, providing a wealth of trustworthy information about North American sea vegetables concerning nutritional values, health aspects, culinary tips, and environmental benefits. How cool! So, if you think you might want the health benefits seaweed has to offer but are not sure exactly how to use it, check in with the Maine Coast Sea Vegetable website. They have a recipes tab full of delicious options, and they actually teach customers how to cook with the products. But my favorite thing about this company is that, in 2017, they became 100% employee owned and operated. Got to respect that! Main Coast seaweeds carry Organic Certification and are lab tested for microbes, heavy metals, radioactivity, pesticides/herbicides, and petroleum residues.
