• “Raw” = not dried at more than 115F degrees.
• Sun dried sea water which is, we admit, slower to yield a batch but we think you are worth it. And the planet is, too.
• Our raw sea salt is sustainable and delicious, and from the sea - a renewable resource. Mostly, we hear YOU love it because it is delicious.
• Lastly, does it makes sense to you for we humans to consume masses of carbon to boil or bake the ocean to produce sea salt? Plus, those processes change the flavor, they really do.

MV Sea Salt is the best of the sea. It is not amended with
-anti-caking powders,
-drying agents,
- bleach,
- iodine,
- bleach,
- fluoride... Yuck.

Open Atlantic Ocean water is filtered at 50 microns to remove sand, shells, small sea creatures before being set out in large, covered ponds to dry. When the water has evaporated the resulting sea salt is scooped and packaged. 

MV Sea Salt has been tested for trace mineral content and surprisingly, although it shouldn’t really be surprising, the results have varied depending on the season. We surmise the difference have to do with migrating sea life and the flow of the ocean, itself.

Many ask, “Is Martha’s Vineyard Sea Salt Certified Organic?” and the answer is that the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) classifies salt as a mineral and not an agricultural product, which means there is not yet an organic certification available for salt and salt products in the United States.

Ergo, any sea salt producer claiming that their product is Certified Organic deserves a talking to.
