Autobiology with Jennifer Little-Fleck

She found THIS in the Kalahari Desert—and now it's in Whole Foods!

October 16, 2022 • Season 2 • Episode 39

Ep 39. Have you ever thought about where your salt comes from? Most people believe all salt comes from the oceans, but that's not true. In this case, it comes from the desert! Meet Samantha Skyring - CEO and Founder of Oryx Desert Salt.

Single mom entrepreneur Samantha Skyring took a 75-mile walk through the Namib Desert. It was there she had powerful face-to-face encounters with the Oryx Gazelle. Next came the discovery of pure, unrefined desert salt from the Kalahari. Together, these experiences were the inspiration for the Oryx Desert Salt brand.
