Seaweed Farming Experience

Uzoefu wa Kilimo cha Mwani

Women who farm the tide.

On the east coast, lines of seaweed stitch the shallows — a women’s economy, a tide-table, and the raw material behind The Soul of Pemba soaps and oils. You wade, harvest, and hear how this work feeds households. The visit is designed with the farmers, not around them.
