More about the focus and objectives for this symposium below. Please note the emphasis on knowledge—what we know, and where we need better information—to make informed decisions about seaweed farming in Washington. [Note that the program will not include ‘how-to’ training or permitting guidance] To ensure diverse and equitable participation by a variety of Washington seaweed constituents, spots will be distributed on a first-come-first-serve basis BY ROLE (e.g. state agency, tribe, farmer, coastal resident, etc.), which you'll have the opportunity to specify from a set of options on the signup form <https://forms.gle/qnbUhyrsrYXm1kyC9> .
