Bee on the look out and help protect our pollinators.

The Yellow-legged Hornet (YLH), a new invasive pollinator predator in South Carolina, is currently building primary and secondary nests as the colonies begin to grow. Be on the lookout on and around structures and in trees. Learn more about identification and reporting in our latest addition of our YLH newsletter “Hornet Herald” at

We love clean water, so we always get excited when people make small decisions that make our communities cleaner!
How are YOU using a little less plastic this summer?

🌎✨ Plastic Free July is a reminder that big change often starts with one small choice. ✨🌎

This month isn't about perfection—it's about possibility.

Choose the reusable water bottle. Bring the shopping bag. Skip the plastic straw. Refuse the disposable utensils. Small actions may seem insignificant on their own, but together they create cleaner communities, healthier waterways, and a more sustainable future.
Never underestimate the power of your choices. Every item you refuse is a vote for the kind of world you want to leave behind.💚
