New State Forest Opens in South Carolina
Description
South Carolina just added a brand-new state forest—Old Beech Hill, a sprawling 1,600-acre gem along the Edisto River—officially opened June 26th, marking a major conservation win. Once stewarded by the Open Space Institute, this land now joins the state’s protected network, including 80 acres of vital wetlands. The Forestry Commission sees it as a triumph for clean water, wildlife habitat, and public recreation—all managed responsibly. State Forester Scott Phillips praised the collaborative effort behind the deal, highlighting how partnerships drive lasting environmental progress. This new forest is now a cherished outdoor destination and a testament to shared commitment to preserving South Carolina’s natural heritage.
