It may very well be that kelp is not something you’ve ever spent much time thinking about. It doesn’t sound like a very interesting subject, after all! But in this episode of California’s Gold, Huell Howser shows us how truly amazing and beautiful kelp is, and what an important part it plays in our oceans — and even in our daily life.

Huell explores one of California’s biggest and most beautiful forests… one we never get to see- the incredible kelp forests off our coast. Travel with Huell from Monterey to San Diego to see how kelp grows, how it is harvested and how it finds its way into the common foods we eat.
