Kelp Climate Fund

GreenWave’s Kelp Climate Fund is a subsidy for ocean farmers to support a bundle of climate impacts

GreenWave’s Kelp Climate Fund pays farmers for the climate benefits of their farms, including blue carbon, nitrogen removal, and reef restoration. The $350,000 program pays $1 per foot of kelp planted, up to $25,000 per farm.

The GreenWave My Kelp app provides farmers with user-friendly tools to measure and track crop yields and the environmental benefits of their farms.

These climate subsidies provide farmers with the resources to:

  • Scale their farm infrastructure

  • Protect against price fluctuations and extreme weather events

  • Measure the climate impact to build community buy-in for their farms
