ReFeed Canada Partners with Cascadia Seaweed to Launch Cascadia’s First Commercialized Agricultural Product



(Sidney, BC)

–  Two of British Columbia’s leading regenerative Agtech companies,

and

, have partnered to launch Cascadia’s first agricultural product, ReFeed Seaweed Extract. This natural liquid plant food made from the extract of cultivated, cold-water kelp, contains essential nutrients for growth and is ideal for a wide range of growing purposes. Liquid Seaweed Extract is produced by Cascadia Seaweed on Vancouver Island and will be sold under the ReFeed Brand.

ReFeed, founded in 2020, and Cascadia Seaweed, founded a year earlier, first crossed paths when they were each nominated for the 2021 BC Food & Beverage Sustainability Award. This collaboration is a natural partnership and an extension of the work they are both doing to support more sustainable and climate-resistant food systems. Their work focuses on harnessing nature and upcycling nutrients to produce plant and soil health products that support food security, food production and a more resilient food system   

“We’re honoured and excited to be Cascadia Seaweed’s first distribution partner and help develop its premiere commercialized agricultural product,” said ReFeed CEO Stuart Lilley. “Like us, they believe our current food production models are broken, and that feeding future generations will require a radical shift in the way we produce food.”

“When we launched ReFeed in 2020, we were focused on finding ways to reduce the massive waste in our food system. As we have worked on ways to rescue and repurpose excess pre-consumer food, we have come to grips with the deeper challenges on the Agrifood system, so our mission has broadened. We are now on the path to becoming the leading company in Canada for superior nature-based plant and soil health products. We are excited to partner with the team at Cascadia Seaweed on our mission to heal the planet together.”

“We are pleased to announce our partnership with ReFeed and launch our inaugural agricultural product,” says Mike Williamson, CEO of Cascadia Seaweed. “Seaweed Extract is a liquid fertilizer which will now be available to garden stores, landscapers, horticulturalists, and farmers across Canada. Cascadia Seaweed takes immense pride in producing this product right here in British Columbia with kelp responsibly cultivated in collaboration with First Nation partners. As a certified B Corp, we are committed to creating a positive impact socially, economically, and environmentally. This milestone further reinforces our dedication to regenerative practices and innovation.”

Seaweed extract nourishes plants, enhances soil health, and bolsters natural defences. Ideal for indoor, outdoor, and greenhouse applications, it rejuvenates soil microorganisms, fortifies plants, and improves soil structure. With its array of plant nutrients, this nature-based alternative to synthetic fertilizers is part of the movement toward a more resilient food system.
