Double Tides Plant Products was founded in 2020 by husband-and-wife duo, Frauke and Brad, in Pennfield, New Brunswick.
Since 2012, Brad has spent the summers on the waters of the Bay of Fundy harvesting seaweed and Frauke has a background in marine biology. After using seaweed extract successfully in their garden, they decided to design a product suitable for home gardeners everywhere. The all-natural seaweed extract is a great supplement to aid in plant growth and crop yield.
The seaweed fertilizer is derived from Ascophyllum nodosum, locally known as Rockweed or Knotted Wrack. Ascophyllum nodosum has been sustainably harvested in Atlantic Canada for decades and the benefits of seaweed extract are well known in commercial farming. Double Tides Plant Products’ mission is to bring the richness of Atlantic Canada’s coast to home gardeners and inspire a love for gardening.
