Traditional Harvesting, Zero Machinery
We never use heavy machinery or industrial extraction methods. Hand raking preserves the natural salt marsh ecosystem, protecting the delicate balance of water, wildlife, and mineral rich soil that takes generations to form.
Protecting the Salt Marshes
The marshes we harvest from in Guérande, Camargue, and Baja California are fragile natural habitats. Our small batch methods ensure these ecosystems continue to thrive for generations of harvesters to come.
Minimal Environmental Footprint
No kilns, no chemical processing, no artificial drying. Our salt is dried naturally by sun and wind alone, meaning our production process consumes a fraction of the energy used in conventional salt manufacturing.
Supporting Traditional Harvesting Communities
We work directly with local, generational harvesters paludiers and saliniers who’ve passed down these techniques for centuries. Choosing Marais Salt means supporting the livelihoods and heritage of these coastal communities.
Sustainable, Minimal Packaging
Our jars are reusable glass, and our packaging is designed to minimize waste no unnecessary plastic, no excess materials. Just what’s needed to protect your salt from harvest to home.
Preserving Coastlines for the Future
We’re committed to responsible sourcing that doesn’t deplete or damage the coastal environments we depend on. Every harvest is measured, monitored, and limited to what the land can naturally sustain.
