We Make It, You Own It with Shellfish Buyer Sarah Xiao | Stories from Maine 

In our four-part series “We Make It, You Own It,” we’re taking a look into the lives of hard-working Mainers whose relationship with the state is deeply infused in their work.
Like many Mainers, Sarah Xiao has a deep connection to the water - and as a shellfish buyer, hers is deeper than most. Her trusty sidekick as she spends her days on the water is the L.L.Bean Boat and Tote, and just like oysters, or people, it takes on the aspects of the environment around it.
Since 1912, we’re put a bit of the essence of Maine into everything we make: products that are hard-working, rugged, unique, and built to stand the test of time. But a boot, or a bag, or a shirt, isn’t truly finished until you add your story to it, too. We make it. You own it.
