Thriving kelp.
Healthy oceans.
Real solutions for a resilient blue planet.

Kelp ecosystems are one of the ocean’s most powerful nature-based solutions, yet one of its most overlooked.

At Kelp Forest Foundation, we demonstrate kelp’s potential through flagship projects, science-based tools and strategic partnerships: making kelp investable, measurable, and ready to scale globally.

We turn kelp potential into scalable impact

Kelp Forest Foundation closes the gap between what science knows about kelp and what markets, governments and restoration practitioners can actually act on. We develop standards, tools and real-world projects that let funders, companies and coastal managers put kelp’s ecosystem services to use.

We do this through:

Research Programs & Standards

Flagship Demonstration Projects
