Keep South Carolina Wild
Plants which naturally occur in an area provide the best habitat for wildlife, and are more drought-tolerant and pest-resistant.
Your help is needed in many different ways to conserve and restore habitat for wildlife across the state.
Gardens or natural areas, of any size, can provide valuable habitat for wildlife by including food, water, cover & places to raise young.
You can easily provide critical habitat in your community for cavity-nesting birds whose populations are in decline.
