Meet the Founder: Lily

Oct 26, 2025

From Fellow Salt Lover + Founder of Saltery — Lily @saltery.obsessed 

Saltery began as a little spark — a love of creativity, flavor, and beauty in everyday moments. 

I wanted to reimagine something as simple as salt — to make it artful, intentional, and colorful.

Every blend we create is hand-crafted with care — designed to inspire you to slow down, savor, and make even the simplest meals feel special.

Building Saltery has been a journey of passion, purpose, and community. I’m endlessly grateful for everyone who’s sprinkled a little Saltery magic into their lives. 

Here’s to more creativity. More color. More flavor. More joy.

💬 Q+A with Founder Lily Leedom — Founder + CEO of @saltery.obsessed

Q: What inspired you to start Saltery?
✨ I’ve always loved the beauty of food and the ritual of cooking healthy food in simple ways. I wanted to turn something simple — like salt — into something expressive, colorful, and full of joy. Saltery was born from the idea that flavor can be art.

Q: What makes Saltery unique?
🌈 Every blend is hand-crafted in small batches with care and creativity. We don’t just make salt — we create an experience that brings color, beauty, and intention to the table.

Q: What does “Flavor with Intention” mean to you?
💫 It’s about slowing down, being present, and celebrating everyday moments. It means pouring love and creativity into what you eat, and how you share it.

Q: Favorite blend right now?
🌿 I’m obsessed with our Guac Salt right now— it’s garlicky, salty with just the right amount of spicy kick and makes everything from avocado toast to guacamole taste special.

Q: Tell us something special we might not know about you:
🌊 I live right on the water surrounded by the natural beauty and abundance of the ocean which provides endless inspiration. Sometimes the tide is really high and seawater end up in my yard. I even paddle boarded in my own yard on a full moon high tide! 

Q: What’s next for Saltery?
🚀 So much! We’re dreaming up new blends, new creative collaborations, and finding more ways to bring beauty + flavor into your kitchen and your life. We're hoping to open a storefront where fellow salt lovers can visit with us in person!! Join our efforts HERE

xo,
Lily 💕
