Hi. My name is Tracy Granter and I work has a research technician for the Marine Institute, at Memorial University of Newfoundland.  Seaweed hatcheries and seaweed farming are the hot topics right now in our province. I am eager to learn everything that I can in order to help others start the process.  Can't wait to get started on the courses.

@tracy_granter -Welcome, Tracy! As you may know, Bren is originally from Newfoundland, so there is some organizational affinity for the place. Please let us know if we can help you answer any specific questions. Best place for hatchery questions is to post in the Hatchery Topic of the Community, where our hatchery team will be following along and happy to respond to you.

@tracy_granter - I’m a regenerative kelp farmer from BC and I know there is an international aquaculture conference in St Johns in August. I’m trying to find a way to participate and get there.
