Yes, South Carolina did export silk in the 18th and early 19th centuries. The state's climate and agricultural conditions were conducive to sericulture, the production of silk from silkworms. Although silk production never became a major industry, it was part of the state's diverse agricultural output during that period. Efforts to promote silk cultivation were made, particularly among plantation owners, but it ultimately did not achieve significant economic impact.
