For over 12 years, Island Organics has specialized in producing Seaweed Biostimulant Extract that helps farmers, nurseries ,greenhouse growers reduce input costs while boosting crop health, resilience, and yield.

Our mission is to provide fresh Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed and hands-on training to establish a simple, reliable, on-site brewing process for OMRI listed seaweed extract.

We sustainably harvest seaweed from Penobscot Bay in mid-coast Maine and deliver it directly to brewing location This avoids the high cost of premade inputs while ensuring quality control and supply. Seaweed is naturally rich in plant growth regulators (PGRs) and systemic acquired resistances (SARs), which improve crop health and yield. we typically see a 15-20% increase in yield and stronger plant health!

Here’s how it works:

• We set up brewing pools on location and deliver the fresh seaweed
• We show how to brew the extract and monitor progress through the first brewing period
• The seaweed is brewed on-site for 30-40 days
• After brewing, the remaining solid seaweed becomes a high-value soil conditioner, creating zero waste
• Extract has up to (2) year shelf life and does not separate at all; very stable product
• cost per gal depends on size of batch made or size of jugs/ ibc totes but we work with growers so they get the lowest price available anywhere

This system allows growers to cut costs, improve yields, and build long term soil health – all with a sustainable, OMRI approved input.
