Our Farming & Producing Friends

We use Vancouver Island Sea Salt in our Flavoured Sea Salts and Seasonings.

Located in Oyster Bay on Vancouver Island, BC

The pristine shorelines of Vancouver Island create the perfect “merroir” for crafting a world class sea salt. We work hard to make our salt but there’s no question that the most special thing about it is where it comes from.

Located on a stunning 400 acre farm with over 2 km of untouched ocean frontage on Oyster Bay, our salt harvestry sits halfway between the vibrant shellfish coast of Comox and the ‘Salmon Capital of the World’, Campbell River. The surrounding waters are glacier fed and bordered by old growth forests. This brings a unique blend of minerals to our salt while keeping our water source clean and unspoiled.

Back in 2006, a small group of European expatriates discovered that Cambodia, and particularly the region of Kampot, was rife with high quality, natural products waiting to be discovered by a global audience. After generations of working the land, the Cambodian farmers were highly skilled in traditional agricultural techniques, producing fine spices and sugar. Items of such high quality would be sought after by the overseas market.

Developed by the group of expatriates, FARMLINK creates that link between the farmers and the international markets, giving the farmers a much-needed vehicle for sales they wouldn’t otherwise have access to. FARMLINK is a Cambodian registered company, helping local farmers develop their businesses and provide new sources of income.

Kampot Red Peppercorn: unlike the pink peppercorn you may find locally (a berry closely related to the cashew family), Kampot RED peppercorn is similar to the Kampot black peppercorn BUT you can taste the floral notes, similar to the pink peppercorn, with a much stronger and true pepper taste.

Kampot White Peppercorn:

Not only does this peppercorn pack a punch it tastes like delicious, true peppercorn. Dislike the "white peppercorn" you are used to finding here in North America? Try the Kampot White Peppercorn! It's white, great for making light sauces, but it's packed full of peppercorn taste. Skip the undesirable taste of the conventional white peppercorn and try Kampot White Peppercorn's true peppercorn flavour for yourself.
