We are Stacy & Amanda, two Maritime Mamas with a shared love for business, creativity, and our kiddos, all while enjoying life in the beautiful Ocean Playground of Nova Scotia.
With our marketing backgrounds, passion for business, and multi-tasking superpowers as parents, we've transformed The Good Anchor into the beloved brand it is today—a fun and nautical tribute to the Maritimes we cherish. We wanted to share our love for the Maritimes in a more fun, and less touristy way by using bright colours, and nostalgic vibes to capture the true heart of what makes the Maritimes so special. Our favourite ice cream? Moon Mist.. days at the beach and camping? Check and double-check.. a nice cold glass of Beep? Well, Stacy busted one open on her wedding day, and the other one is still nestled safely in her freezer for a special anniversary lol. We live by the motto “Good Times in the Maritimes”.
At The Good Anchor, we wear many hats: designers, customer service reps, accountants, seamstresses, and quality control experts—all rolled into one! Our hard work and dedication ensure we deliver the best products possible, driven by our passion to share them with the world.
Our designs are uniquely ours, featuring our handwriting and artwork. We heat press each item in-house, guaranteeing top-notch quality control. We've also written and illustrated our book, and created 90% of our designs with some sourced from fantastic Maritime designers.
When we’re not working on The Good Anchor, we enjoy spending time with our families, exploring Nova Scotia, and supporting our local community and other small businesses!
