Pawleys Island General Store

What began as a roadside market in 2010, the General Store was a notion in the mind of owner Mary Beth Pope a decade before. An advocate for animal welfare and Mother Earth, a vegetarian for 17 years, Mary Beth has always believed in eating local sustainable foods but had great difficulty sourcing local foods at area markets and restaurants. She owned a farm to table restaurant for several years, and after selling that in 2005 realized the area needed a local foods market.

That market started as a roadside stand and became not just a food market but the general store and local artisans collective.

Mary Beth believes wholeheartedly that bringing local and sustainable foods to her community, promoting talented local artists, and supporting local farmers is the best way to promote a healthy and fulfilling lifestyle through sustainability.

Our retail food market features the best local produce (our tomatoes are legendary!) take away casseroles & pot pies, grass-fed beef & pork and more.

Our artisan’s collective features handmade & repurposed jewelry, clothing, housewares, linens, art, dry goods and more using local & sustainable materials.

Wooden bowls & utensils from native hardwoods, handmade linen dresses, fused glass ornaments, Sweetgrass baskets, birdhouses- we have something for everyone and every occasion.
