Seaweed holds a profound significance in the history of Ireland, we have always had a deep connection to the land and sea, especially during times of adversity such as the Great Famine. For generations past, when faced with challenging circumstances like food scarcity, seaweed became a lifeline. The Great Famine, which devastated Ireland in the mid-19th century, led people to rely on the ocean's bounty as a source of sustenance. Seaweed emerged as a valuable food source, rich in nutrients and minerals, helping communities endure times of hunger and hardship. Today, as we honor our heritage by creating ethically hand harvested Irish seaweed skincare and culinary products, we pay tribute to the wisdom of generations past who recognised the incredible value of this natural treasure.
