Our Story
Hi, we're Michael and Kylee. We are a husband and wife duo that had a crazy idea in the middle of the 2020 pandemic to start an ice cream company. After feedback from our three built-in taste testers, our kids, and reviews from family and friends, we knew it was time to go bigger. What began as a hobby quickly grew into a passion for creating unique flavors that incorporate our love for hip-hop and pop culture and building a unique brand in the community we serve.
Here at a Tribe Called Smith, we are a premium small-batch artisan ice cream company. Meaning we're giving you the best product thoughtfully made in smaller quantities. You can often find us at the local farmer's market or a small business trying to find ways to incorporate their product into our flavors. Our motto is, "It takes a TRIBE."
Our Mission
Our goal is to develop a community or "A Tribe" through ice cream. It starts with our relationship with growers and producers and then moves to our family, where we create unique flavors and put our spin on traditional favorites. We then create a tribe with our consumers and the organizations in the community. Each month we donate a portion of our proceeds to local charities that we support.
