Smith Island Crabmeat Co-Op

Tylerton

Started in 1996 by 12 gutsy Smith Island women, this co-op produces the finest, shell-less-quality crabmeat, with all proceeds going straight back to the women and their families. Visitors can drop by and see the lightning-fast pickers at work. Don't forget to pick up a pound before you leave, and ask Janice (the founder and president) about her secret crab-cake ingredient.
