BLACK SEAWEED ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY
About:
What: Ethnographic Study. Meetings, Interviews, Participate in Harvest
Where: Across Southeast Alaska
Why: Not much is known about how black seaweed is used in Southeast Alaska. This includes how the seaweed is picked, prepared, eaten, shared, and used in art and ceremonies. Without writing it down, this important cultural knowledge could be lost, especially with changes in climate that affect black seaweed.Â
