Its underwater forests of kelp and other seaweeds support an incredible web of life\, from sea otters to abalone to the communities that steward this coast. This year’s festival invites everyone to Dive In. \n\n\n\nJoin researchers\, innovators\, chefs\, and ocean advocates for a day of talks\, demos\, seaweed tastings\, and hands-on exploration of the science\, culture\, and future of macroalgae. \n\n\n\nAt a moment when kelp forests along the Monterey Peninsula have dramatically declined\, the festival is both a celebration of ocean biodiversity and an invitation to cultivate ocean abundance together. \n\n\n\nCome curious. Leave inspired. \n\n\n\nEverything Seaweed!Art • Food • Science Aquaculture • VendorsLive Music • WorkshopsCrafts • InnovationSustainability • TechnologyFREE!Family Friendly \n\n\n\nMore information URL:https://www.montereyhistory.org/event/7th-annual-california-seaweed-festival/ LOCATION:Custom House Plaza\, Monterey State Historic Park\, Custom House Plaza\, Monterey\, CA\, 93940\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.montereyhistory.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/IMG_5058.jpeg GEO:36.602911500825;-121.89364427872 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Custom House Plaza Monterey State Historic Park Custom House Plaza Monterey CA 93940 United States;X-APPLE-RADIUS=500;X-TITLE=Custom House Plaza:geo:-121.89364427872,36.602911500825 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20270430T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20270502T193000 DTSTAMP:20260824T153738Z CREATED:20260824T152948Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260824T153738Z UID:10003979-1809109800-1809286200@www.montereyhistory.org SUMMARY:4th Central Coast Conference - Seldom Heard History of the Civil War Era DESCRIPTION:Enjoy a full weekend of intriguing presentations by a stellar lineup of historians\, exploring fresh perspectives on the American Civil War.
