    Kelp Confidential: Secrets of Connecticut’s Culinary Seaweed Scene

    Thursday, April 12, 2018 at 6 p.m.
    The Maritime Aquarium, 10 N. Water St., Norwalk CT 06854

    Crunchy, munchy, delicious, and nutritious, seaweed is having a comestible moment. You can find it
    everywhere from high-end restaurants to the shelves of Trader Joe’s. Happily for the state, Connecticut’s
    coastline is prime seaweed territory, and the industry is expanding. At the next UConn Science Salon,
    we’ll hear from local chefs, growers, and scientists on how we grow it, cook it, and enjoy it.
    Join us on April 12 at the Maritime Aquarium for a salty discussion.

    Seaweed snacks, refreshments, and networking begin at 6 p.m.; panelist program starts at 6:30.  Click here to learn more.

    $15 admission includes one drink and appetizers. Register here.
