We are proud to offer a very special, unique and sustainably managed nature product - Matinicus Raw Sea Salt.
Maine Salt Farm produces hand-harvested, 100 solar-evaporated sea salt from the clean, cold waters surrounding Mainicus Island -- Real Maine Sea Water! - from Maine's most remote inhabited island. This small-batch, raw sea salt is created using traditional methods, resulting in a mineral-rich, bold, and briny finishing salt with a crunchy texture.

Key Details about Matinicus Salt Farm Products:

  • Harvesting: It is harvested by hand in small batches, ensuring high-quality, non-uniform, and unique crystals.
  • Flavor Profile: It is described as bold, bright, and briny.
  • Uses: Ideal for a finishing salt on food, but also suitable for cooking and curing.
  • Sustainability: The process uses only the sun and wind to evaporate the seawater

Matinicus Salt Farm is a women-owned and family operated saltworks on the remote island of Matinicus, 23 miles off the coast of Maine. She makes small-batch wild sea salt harvesting the clean and clear waters that surround the island. The salt is 100% solar evaporated, a slow and sustainable process that creates a high quality wild salt that has a bold flavor unique to this amazing place.

Usha is a tenth generation Matinicus Islander, and her daughter is the 11th generation who has a family with a rich history on Matinicus. Usha's grandmother was the island nurse, and her grandfather, a lobsterman who also ran the island general store and post office when Matinicus had over 250 year-round residents. Much has changed, but Usha continue's her family's enduring relationship with the island and its people. Raw sea salt isn't just a product but a testament to the place the family and long-term residents cherish and share with each crystal of salt.
