Salt with an address.
A 2021 Maine Coast Fishermen’s Association profile locates its salt-making setup in York. [1] [3]
THE METHOD

The operator says it collects Maine seawater by boat near high tide. The 2021 producer interview describes filtering that water, concentrating it in greenhouse trays, then filtering the brine again before further evaporation. Current equipment details still need confirmation. [1] [3]
