The salt marshes in France by Olivier Jarry-Lacombe
PASS THE SALT... These salt lakes look like a palette of paints. Aerial photos show the beautiful salt flats of La Palme, Southern France in a wonderful new light.
Olivier Jarry-Lacombe, 44, said, "Salt farming in the region has begun recently, with the salt marshes producing incredible colours, the landscape is a tapestry of brown, beige and whites. The La Palme salt marsh is one of the main salt-farming sites in the Aude department, covering over 400 hectares. Roughly 30,000 tonnes of salt will be harvested here."
"These marshes are an annexe to the La Palme pond, built between 1927 to 2005, then abandoned until 2014, when they were restored and produced their first harvest." (FOTO: DUKAS/SOLENT NEWS)

REPORTAGE - Heimat des Fleur de Sel: Die Salzbauern von Aigues-Mortes
Aigues-Mortes, France, on August 04, 2020. The Salins du Midi.The cultivation of salt by man dates back to Antiquity. In Aigues-Mortes Jules César, the first, organized the production of sea salt on a large scale. Over the centuries, monarchs and religious shared the profits from this exploitation. With King Saint Louis in 1856 the company Les Salins du Midi was created.Today the salt works spread over 8900 hectares and employ 150 people. Before the salt harvest, for only 3 weeks per year, at dawn the fleur de sel is carefully collected by the salt workers. Fleur de sel crystals only form on the surface of the water due to precipitation created by the change in temperature between night and day. The fleur de sel is collected manually with a shovel, in the past it was reserved only for the king. Photo by Patrick Aventurier/ABACAPRESS.COM (FOTO: DUKAS/ABACA)
