The Yellow Farmhouse Education Center and Stonington Kelp Company will host Kelp Fest, a month-long celebration from April 26 to May 27. Events will include cooking classes, a kelp farm boat tour and more!
It will begin with a Kelp Fest Kickoff at Stone Acres Farm in Stonington from noon to 3 p.m. on April 26. This is a free, drop-in celebration of the season. Guests can enjoy kelp tastings, interactive demos, press local seaweeds, shop with local vendors, bring home some kelp, and even a visit from the Connecticut Sea Grant mobile seaweed lab.
The celebration will continue by bringing farmers, chefs, and educators together for hands-on classes, tastings, talks, and on-the-water experiences that spotlight kelp, one of New England’s most exciting ocean crops.
From sea to table, join us to explore the flavors, sustainability, and stories shaping our local waters. Save the date for our Land and Sea Greens Cocktail Party on Stone Acres Farm on Monday, May 18 from 5:30 to 7 p.m., celebrating the end of sugar kelp harvest season!
