Essential. Elemental. Alive.
The Salt Volume is a meditation on what sustains us. From the sea to the kitchen, from memory to ritual, salt runs through our lives in quiet but powerful ways. This edition of FOLKLIFE explores salt as symbol, sustenance, and story—what we carry, what we preserve, and what we’re made of.
Within these pages, you’ll find reflections on the mineral’s role in tradition, healing, and nourishment. Essays and interviews surface themes of preservation and endurance, with stories from those who work with their hands, live close to the tides, and honour the everyday magic of salt, both literal and metaphorical.
