More about OceanGreen Organics

Standing on the shore at Kaka Point - the view is beautiful, breathtaking and feels so pure in many ways. Further around the bay is Nugget Point where a white Lighthouse stands tall and has kept ships safe for over 100 years. Orcas swim by in their glistening pods, providing displays of airborne dives and dramatic splashes.

I feel the sand beneath my feet – the water swirls around my ankles – the cold almost takes my breath away. I can hear the sound of the waves and the water moving – so empowering.

Looking beyond the waves from where I stand are dark clumps of kelp (also known as giant kelp) floating and bobbing just under the surface. Kelp is a Macrocystis seaweed, an aquatic plant-like algae, which shifts and sways with the tides and currents. Kelp colonies are anchored offshore no more than a 100 metre swim away – or an easy paddle distance.

Kaka Point is a spectacular part of New Zealand, and it is where our story starts. The environment here is pure, calming, and undamaged. The kelp likewise is pure and organic. Moreover, it is sustainably harvested. Kelp grows a metre a day – the fastest growing seaweed variety - and naturally replenishes itself after harvesting. Harvesting – hand-picked from the water takes place either during dusk or dawn – where the plants switch from respiration to photosynthesis – the optimal time.

Once harvested, this Macrocystis seaweed is freeze-dried before being sent to our HACCP / RMP - highest quality standards / 'certified' manufacturer in Christchurch. Our company is called New Zealand Southern Pacific Seaweed Company and products are brought to you by our brand Oceangreen Organics. We are a small passionate business that is harnessing the hidden treasures of seaweed by producing a range of seaweed based products. We look forward to sharing these products with you.

I have an affinity with the ocean and what is within it having grown up by the seaside in my childhood. When I met a seaweed harvester I knew I wanted to harness this wonderful ocean goodness and its bountiful nutrients by developing them into a range of consumer products. It was a hidden treasure waiting to be discovered and shared.

The health benefits of seaweed are numerous and need to be accessible to a wider audience. After extensive research and talking to many people in the ‘know’, Oceangreen Organics was born. My name is Daneen and I look forward to sharing our products with you - thank you for stopping by.

Our harvest hub - the Coastal Clutha District, Otago, New Zealand. (46.3866° S, 169.7823° E)
