Green Stream Farms grows its algae on lined pools dotting its property off of state Highway 9. Rich in Omega-3 nutrients, the harvests are used in livestock feed and nutritional consumer products, according the state Economic Development Department.
The company acquired the facility from Sapphire Energy, which built the farm as a biorefinery, and assumed operations in 2019.
