Click on "About Fort Mose" to read the story.
Established in 1738 by Colonial Spanish Florida's Governor Manuel Montiano, Fort Mose gave sanctuary to Africans challenging enslavement in the English Colony of Carolina. Approximately 100 Africans lived at Fort Mose, forming more than 20 households. Together they created a frontier community which drew on a range of African backgrounds blended with Spanish, Native American and English cultural traditions.

The Press
The Press is tucked at the end of a strip shopping center about 9 miles from The Sand Bucket, but another one that is definitely worth the drive. Owned an operated by a local family, it is an outstanding casual, small eatery with a great selection of craft beers, wine, and simple fresh homemade American food. As the name implies, they serve burgers nestled inside of wonderful homemade brioche buns, but the menu offers much more. The evening specials include steaks and occasionally you might find Beef Wellington being offered. If you can arrive early or late for lunch, do so! The Press is small. I would suggest early for dinner if you can. And do not leave without trying the Bread Pudding for dessert - AWESOMENESS!
