M& M’s Graball is the only store on Sapelo Island and the Trough is its only bar. Both are owned and operated by Cornelia Walker Bailey and her family, scions of the island’s cultural heritage. It’s open for visitors taking guided tours of the island each day.

I’m lucky to have had a few visits with Mrs. Bailey while staying with a friend on the island in the mid 2010s. She encouraged me to document what I could on the island and shared identifications of many locations, admonishing me to be respectful with what I was doing.
