Ocean's Balance
Ocean's Balance has a serious love for Maine, and an equally big heart for the ocean. Committed to making seaweed #PartOfTheSolution to fix the world's broken food model, they only source the sea vegetable from farms using sustainable growing and harvesting practices. CEO Mitchell Lench co-founded the company because he recognized that seaweed was a long-term super food for people and the planet, and sticking with locally grown kelp in the cold waters of Maine was the way to do it.
