This unique blend of Gathering Place Antarctic Pure Sea Salt and Gathering Place Organic Black Pepper is a a bold and spicy taste sensation! 

Our Sea Salt originates in the Antarctic Ocean, which is why we named it Antarctic Pure. It contains 82 trace minerals, including 1800 ppm of magnesium and 2400 ppm of calcium! Much higher amounts than most sea salt! It is heavy metal-free and contains zero microplastics, making it one of the five safest sea salts in the world.

Our Black Pepper is organically grown and harvested in the multi-tiered food forests of small scale family farms in Sri Lanka. The peppercorns are always harvested in the current year, and are the freshest and most flavourful you can get.

Use Gathering Place Antarctic Pure Sea Salt & Black Pepper as a delicious accent to all your favourite meals! We especially like it on omelettes or hash browns!

Welcome to Gathering Place Trading,

Where We Direct Source the Best Antarctic Pure Sea Salt & Black Pepper

About Our Antarctic Pure Sea Salt Partner

Gathering Place Antarctic Pure Sea Salt is naturally harvested by a Fair for Life FairTrade™ Certified and HACCP certified family business, which betters the lives of their workers through education, child care, and health care. They also provide a portion of their profits to support employee-selected projects in the South African community.

While most of the world’s salt is mined from non-renewable sources, our sea salt originates from the Benguela current in the Antarctic Ocean, on the West Coast of South Africa. The water flows through layers of shells into a deep aquifer. This natural process purifies the water and increases the abundance of minerals, while removing micro-plastics and other contaminants. This pristine brine is sun and wind-dried and the crystals are hand-harvested by our South African fair trade partners, never machine cut or ground. Our Sea Salt is unrefined and free from additives or preservatives.

About Our Sri Lankan Farmers

Gathering Place Organic Black Pepper is grown in the multi-tiered food forests of small- scale family farms in Sri Lanka. Peppercorns are the fruit of an evergreen climbing vine, and they are most commonly seen winding up coconut trees, and thriving in the partial shade. Black, white, and green peppercorns all come from the same plant, but they are harvested at different times and handled in different ways.

We proudly hand blend our Sea Salt and Pepper in small batches and then hand package it in-house on Vancouver Island, in Campbell River, BC.
