Does anyone know where I can find bulk kelp for a decent price? The distributor I used to use, has been unable to get it. TIA!

Search for organic fertilizer distributors. In the 70's I used Norweigen sea kelp for gardening.It seemed like the same stuff sold in health food stores for human consumption except it was a courser ground. It sold for 16 dollars for a hundred lb. sack . Until it got popular.The distributors could probably tell you if it's considerd animal feed grade.

I get mine from our local garden store for $1.07 a lb. Also Gardens Alive (found on the web) carries it. I feed it to my goats every day in order to get it into the milk which I then consume. Absolutely nothing in this world makes you feel better & its a real treat for the goats.
