Our Story

I grew up in Maine, spent some time away, and eventually found my way back home. Coming back made me want to create a space that celebrates what makes Maine feel like home — whether you live here year-round, spend weekends at camp, or come back season after season.


On the Docks is that space. A shop filled with things for your home, your table, gift-giving, and everyday living — pieces that fit right in, wherever “home” is for you.



What I Love About the Shop

I love things that feel easy, useful, and welcoming.

Things that get used.

Things that make gifting simpler.

Things that make a space feel more like home.

That’s what guides what you’ll see on the shelves.

How I Choose What’s Here

I pay close attention to what people ask for, what they come back for, and what they tell me they love. That feedback matters — it’s how the shop grows.

And I’m not shy — I’ll often just ask what you’d like to see more of. If we don’t have something, I can often special order it or help find something similar. It’s one of the perks of being a small, local shop.

Community

Jaime Anderson, Owner

Community isn’t something we schedule — it just happens here.

It shows up in conversations, shared recommendations, familiar faces, and that feeling that you’re always welcome to stop in.
