Mung Bean is an independent art & music business based in Midcoast Maine. The Boothbay Harbor craft shop—started in Coopers Mills in 1974, moved to its current Townsend Avenue location in 1977, and run by sister-brother team Sue and Steve—celebrates quality and good design in Maine and American handcrafts: pottery, jewelry, woodwork, metalsmithing, preserves, and clothing.
Mung Bean has been celebrating Maine and American handcraft from Boothbay Harbor since 1977, when sister-brother team Sue and Steve moved the shop to Townsend Avenue from its 1974 origins in Coopers Mills. The selection ranges across pottery, jewelry, woodwork, metalsmithing, preserves, and clothing — every piece chosen for design quality and craftsmanship rather than tourist-trade volume. A genuine craft destination of the kind that's getting rarer.
A curated companion to Maine's independent businesses — makers, retailers, and the products they carry.
