Discover Nocatee

Nocatee, in DeSoto County, began as a lumber town in the 1880s. Two businesses drove its growth: the King Lumber and Manufacturing Company, founded by W. G. Welles in 1896, and the Nocatee Crate Lumber and Manufacturing Company, opened a few years later, side by side west of the Florida Southern Railroad tracks.

More about Nocatee

The Nocatee Crate Company became the largest employer in DeSoto County thanks to its "4-One" packing crate, made of wire wrapped around wood corners and veneer strips, which could be flattened and stacked and made shipping fruit and vegetables cheaper. It built and rented homes to its workers along the west side of U.S. 17, and when it closed the homes were auctioned to the residents. The Nocatee Baptist Church, later the First Baptist Church of Nocatee, was organized around 1890 and first met in a local school under the Reverend T. J. Sparkman.
