Certified Organic Seaweed In 1992, Maine Coast Sea Vegetables become the first US seaweed company to receive Organic Certification. We have little control over the growing conditions of wild marine vegetables - but we do have choices about how, when, where, and how much we harvest, as well as how the seaweeds are transported, dried, stored and packaged. In addition MCSV is one of the only companies that independently chooses to do third party lab tests for possible contaminants through Katahdin Analytical, Northeast Laboratories, Brooks Applied Labs, and Eurofins. Studies are available on our website. The NOP (National Organic Program) Standards help to ensure sustainability. These standards give clear and uniform direction to all responsible parties for harvesting and handling these precious vegetables on their way to your table. OCIA Organic Certification # NOP-06317, 2021 Harvested From the North Atlantic Most of our sea vegetables are harvested from the cold waters of the North Atlantic. Harvest grounds are carefully chosen to be in compliance with our OCIA Organic Certification to ensure the highest standards of quality, purity, and long-term sustainability. Seaweeds Harvested Since 1971 Maine Coast Sea Vegetables was founded in 1971 by Shep and Linnette Erhart in their farmhouse kitchen, inspired by a pot of miso soup that was especially delicious. They realized that the soups’ full, rich flavor came from the wild Alaria they had gathered from the shores of the Schoodic Peninsula, and they soon began sharing their Atlantic Wakame and other wild-harvested sea vegetables with friends and neighbors.
