At Seatopia, we’re passionate about supporting regenerative ocean initiatives that enhance marine ecosystems and create sustainable food systems. That’s why we’re thrilled to share the incredible work of Ocean Rainforest, an organization spearheading offshore kelp farming projects with transformative potential for our oceans and communities.

Why Offshore Kelp Farming Matters
Kelp farming is one of the most sustainable and impactful forms of aquaculture. It:

  • Absorbs carbon and excess nutrients, helping combat climate change and ocean acidification.
  • Enhances biodiversity by creating marine habitats.
  • Provides a renewable source of food and materials with minimal environmental footprint.

Ocean Rainforest is taking these benefits to the next level by scaling an innovative offshore kelp farm right here in Southern California. This project represents a monumental step for California to create a symbiotic relationship with our local oceans while setting a global example for regenerative aquaculture.

Crispy Air Fryer Steelhead Bites with Green Goddess Tzatziki

Steelhead cut into cubes, tossed with oregano, smoked paprika and garlic powder, and air-fried until the edges go golden — then piled onto warm jasmine rice with arugula, feta, kalamata olives and a green goddess tzatziki that gets its colour and body from a whole avocado blended into the yogurt. Pat the fish properly dry first; that’s the whole trick to the crust. The sauce goes on at the table, not in the basket, so the bites stay crisp.
