Trees SC,  formerly the South Carolina Urban and Community Forestry Council,  was founded in 1991 as a non-profit organization to foster the stewardship of South Carolina’s urban and community forests through education, advocacy and network.  These forests include all the trees in your community:  tree-lined roads,  parks,  neighborhoods, and commercial building sites.  Taking care of the trees in these areas benefits the environmental,  social and economic well-being of your community.

Goals

• To extend the collective knowledge and awareness of the value, management and wise use of trees
• To facilitate information exchange concerning the management of urban and community forests
• To encourage citizens to take an active interest in the care and management of urban and community forests
