San Juan Island Sea Salt

San Juan Island Sea Salt

Crafted By: Brady Ryan

Friday Harbor, WA

Solar evaporated and hand harvested in unheated hoop-houses make this salt created entirely by the sun. Unlike other makers, San Juan Island allows their saltwater to completely evaporate, bringing in the whole mineral wealth of the ocean to broaden the flavor and results in a large crystal ideal for finishing dishes. 

Irregular crystals, lots of mineral flavor and a slight moisture content make San Juan Island a perfect booster right before dig in to your favorite dishes. We're loving adding this salt to our favorite summer desserts - everything from a stone fruit clafoutis to strawberry shortcake tastes even better with a sprinkle of this salt!

About The Producer

Brady, was raised on San Juan Island, located in Northern Washington and enjoyed countless hours swimming in the cold, clean ocean. After college he developed a passion for plants and agriculture and a short stint working with Ballard Bee Company in Seattle (another The FareTrade favorite!) he moved his work back home and started San Juan Island Honey which has slowly evolved to include another island treasure - sea salt.
