OUR COMMITMENT
We’re lucky to be here in Maine, surrounded by pristine ocean and part of a storied seafood economy. The generations of fishermen that came before our small company have established our home state as an international leader in ocean-borne foods, something that strengthens the brand and expands the opportunities for so many younger companies today. For that, we’re incredibly thankful.
To give back, we’re proud to be a 1% for the Planet member, choosing different non-profits each year that have a positive impact on the health of our planet.
Clean Energy and Limited Plastic.
In addition to producing salt using only the sun to evaporate ocean water, we've removed nearly all the plastic from our packaging. Minimizing the waste our company produces, both in material and energy usage, is one of our highest priorities.
Featured Work
This is the space to introduce the Project section. Take this opportunity to give visitors a brief overview of the types of projects they'll find featured in the showcase below. Consider adding an image or video to spark their interest.
Worked by the sun.
From late spring to early autumn - when the sun is warmest - the ocean water in the evaporation houses heats rapidly. Following an ancient French method, the water is evaporated in stages, resulting in a beautiful finishing salt that retains trace minerals from the wild Atlantic Ocean. The final product boasts a unique flavor and a delicate crystal that changes depending on the weather and season when it was made.
Gathered at sea.
We start with cold, pure Atlantic Ocean water drawn from the Gulf of Maine, a body of water known for its extreme tides and incredible bio-diversity. It is filtered, and delivered to the evaporation houses where it is ultimately reduced to crystals using the passive energy of the sun.
Prepared for you.
Packing pure sea salt isn't as straight forward as you might think. Once the sun has done the work of the bulk evaporation, we follow a time-tested method to leave behind unwanted minerals and most of the moisture. It’s a bit of science and a bit of art! We then grade the salt for size, crystal shape, and purity before packing it for you.
