Spirulina grows naturally in various lakes around the world. Spirulina needs highly alkaline water to grow, therefore it is typically found in the tropical and subtropical regions of the world. Today, most spirulina is grown in “Spirulina Farms” using advanced aquaculture and algaculture methods. It is grown in raceway ponds and agitated using paddles. Thanks to these methods, we can now gorw large quantities of extremely nutritional and “clean” spirulina.
