Following the leadership of dAXuhnyuu (the Eyak People), she supports several key cultural and environmental revitalization initiatives.

In this episode, Mark and Skye talk about becoming a kelp farmer, what it takes to start in this new and emerging business, what role and and cooperation does community play in this type of business and what kind of food does kelp actually produce and how do we eat it?
