Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

My husband, Chris “Grizz” McIntire, passed away in his sleep in November 2025. Over the past year, this town has lifted up our family during the hardest time of our lives.

I will never be able to reach everyone who helped, supported, prayed for and loved us over the past year. Thank you for everything. Your kindness keeps us going during these dark days.

Harpswell is truly the best place to have a tragedy.

Margaret McIntire, Orr’s Island

Highly recommend local chef

We were in Alaska with family in June when a local restaurant called to tell us our dinner reservation for 18 to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary was being canceled because they were closing. I had noticed a column in the Anchor by a new catering chef ("Harpswell's Private Chef") and called your wonderful development officer, Janice Thompson, who directed me to Amanda Palma.

Message to Vegetable Corner customers

I write this on behalf of my parents, Raymond and Violet Tetreault. After they made the difficult decision to close the Vegetable Corner last September, they were deeply moved by the outpouring of love from all of you.

The art of our town

As I look out my window while cozy by the fire, I think about how quickly autumn passed and winter settled in. This time of year, Harpswell seems to take on a quieter and more subdued beauty.

Safe walking on Route 24

Have you ever tried to walk along Route 24? The only safe place is on the walkway of the Cribstone Bridge. Otherwise, on both Orr's and Bailey islands, it's literally trusting that the often speeding traffic will see you and steer away from your path.
