Cultivating the Pristine Waters of Cordova, Alaska
Located in Simpson Bay, Prince William Sound, Cordova, Alaska.
Our regenerative farming operations embody active ocean stewardship, naturally filtering marine ecosystems while fostering vital habitat growth.
We cultivate premium sugar, split, and giant kelp. Notably, WildBlue is Alaska’s first and only mariculture operation to grow giant (Macrocystis) kelp.
Our commitment to biodiversity continues this spring with bull kelp outplanting scheduled for early March.
WildBlue Mariculture
We recognize the urgent need to diversify coastal community economies and embrace the opportunities of the emerging blue economy.
Kelp is a regenerative resource: it sequesters carbon, creates marine habitat, and requires no arable land, fertilizer, or freshwater to grow, making it a positive driver for the future of a resilient blue economy.
As the global plastic pollution crisis continues to threaten marine ecosystems, the shift toward regenerative materials is essential. Kelp-based bioplastics offer a transformative solution—a low-impact, naturally biodegradable alternative that heals the ocean as it grows. WildBlue Mariculture is dedicated to scaling kelp cultivation to replace harmful synthetics, providing the essential biological foundation for a sustainable blue economy and a cleaner future for our waters.
Ocean Stewardship
Our holistic stewardship model ensures that every acre of cultivation contributes to the local ecosystem and long-term marine biodiversity.
