Half Moon Bay MicrofarmSmart Microfarm near San Francisco

This first Northern California spirulina farm began in 2016 in Half Moon Bay, south of San Francisco, inside a large commercial glass greenhouse once used for growing flowers. We produce an all-natural product in a controlled environment, using no pesticides, herbicides or fungicides. The water source is Half Moon Bay city water, carbon filtered. With a Certified Producer Certificate for the CA Farmers Market Program, we sell in San Rafael, Oakland and Santa Cruz. Product is sold in select natural food stores in the SF Bay Area, direct to customers locally and online.


Olympia FarmSmart Microfarm near Olympia Washington

As one of the northern most spirulina farms, this facility demonstrated the capability of algae microfarms in cooler climates and tests microfarms for growing algae for local food and high value products. Two ponds have insulating foam panels below and retractable cover above, all within a larger vegetable greenhouse to help keep algae culture water warm, increase productivity and extend the growing season beyond the summer months. This smart microfarm is monitored remotely by webcam and the daily data sent from the local operator.


AlgaeMicro4Home, Community and Small Algae Microfarms

Most common question over the past 35 years: “Can we grow algae at home or in our communities?” The answer used to be “Not yet”. Growing and processing required large scale production and expensive expert personnel on site.
But today, things have changed. Growing systems are simplified allowing lower cost of entry. Successful small scale business models already exist. Automated smart technology will reduce the need for experts on site. Modular growing systems will be deployed anywhere in the world.


AlgaeEvolution4Algae Evolution from Large Farms to Micro Farms

First a brief look at the evolution of microalgae production over the past 35 years, since its rediscovery as a human food. From the first farms to large commercial farms today producing spirulina, chlorella, dunaliella, hematococcus and schizochytrium for a wide array of global products.
Then, over the past 30 years, the development of small farms in developing world villages in Africa and Asia leading to the emergence of algaepreneurs and the spirulina microfarm movement in France.

Algae ArchitectureAmazing Algae Architecture

How will growing algae change the world and improve our lives? Imagine our future living in cities where buildings are covered with photosynthetic skins and vertical gardens, collecting the sun’s energy and producing food and energy for urban citizens. Imagine greening desert coastlines and producing food for millions of people. Lets look into our future and see how algae will move into landscapes, living buildings, and eco communities producing local food and energy. Here are just a few of the emerging themes, schemes and dreams in algae architecture design, from the possibly practical to the utterly fantastic.
