For decades Larry has been fishing and foraging for the tastiest ocean snacks Northern California has to offer. Not only feeding himself and the people he cares about, but also selling healthy products through his environmentally conscious seaweed snack company  — Rising Tide Sea Vegetables. Larry has a deep understanding of coastal habitats in Northern California. Through his stories we hear the events that shaped his perspective on our place in the eco system, the problems with mass scale food production, and the common misconceptions of human impact.
