Raye’s Mustard Mill Museum is a working stone-ground mustard mill and mustard shop in Eastport, Maine. The family began making mustard to compliment the local sardine industry.

Speaking of sardines, there is a Sardine Museum in Lubec, Maine — travel from the mustard museum either 38 miles by car, or only 4 miles by boat.
