Northern California’s "redwoods" aren't just on land. Below the surface, our bull kelp forests provide the foundation for life on the North Coast, but they are in crisis. 🌊🌲
Join Surfrider Foundation Humboldt Chapter and our partners for a special screening of the award-winning documentary, "Sequoias of the Sea."
Over the last decade, we’ve lost nearly 95% of our local kelp forests. This film moves past the headlines to follow the scientists, Indigenous leaders, and fishermen who are working underwater to bring these ecosystems back from the brink. It’s a story of resilience, cultural stewardship, and community action.
After the film, stick around for a conversation about what’s happening in our local waters and how we can help.
MODERATOR:
Morgan King (Surfrider Foundation)
PANELISTS:
• Natasha Benjamin – Filmmaker, Blue Frontier
• Kevin McKernan – Yurok Tribe
• Laurie Richmond – Cal Poly Humboldt
Come for the cinematography, stay for the conversation. Whether you’re a surfer, a student, or just someone who loves the Pacific, we’d love to see you there.
