In 2010, what began as a gift to loved ones became a journey of sel and soul. Jody Van Buskirk started with a small herb garden, blending her first sel extraordinaire: sun-dried tomato. When a close friend, Laine Alexander, returned to Southern Oregon, they called in the unicorn and began working their magic.They love salt. And they’ve searched the world over for the very best salt. It happens to be grey and moist and comes from a French village along the Atlantic Ocean, called Guerande, where it’s hand-harvested from nutrient and mineral rich clay soil in a process called “winning,” from a pond called Salinity. Naturally.

Now, Salinity Salts’ first three blends, Rosemary-Garlic, Chipotle and Hot (now !Fire!), have grown to seventeen in just six years.

Since 2012, to make the very best salt they can from the very depths of their soul, Salinity Salts has involved an infusion of family: Jody and Laine, their husbands, children, cousins, and even in-laws. All part of a collective journey on a farm in Southern Oregon. All a part of nature. Salt of the earth, you might say.

And all towards one end: Finishing Salts.
