Food and Drink » Seaweed
High in calcium and magnesium, seaweed is a natural food that is grown right on our doorstep! It contains many vitamins and minerals that our body needs from day to day and is fast becoming a recognised healthy addition to our daily diet. Here we feature seaweeds from Clearspring and also from Algaran, who harvest their crops from the clear waters of the Atlantic ocean around Donegal Bay.
