An evening with Diane Bernard, 'The Seaweed Lady'

Well known for her expertise and versatility in seaweeds, Diane Bernard, 'The Seaweed Lady', began her own seaweed tours by offering the experience of the "garden" and education to enthusiasts around the world. She is licensed to harvest fresh, wild and organically grown seaweeds along the outer coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

Diane's seaweed programs and educational seminars have been featured and reviewed by Discovery Channel, National Geographic, National Post, Globe and Mail, and Toronto Star and others.
