Tom Hutto Quote
South Carolina’s rich outdoor and agrarian heritage is built on its bounty of natural resources and the generations of South Carolinians who have guarded them. As we move through the 21st century, our state’s economic fortunes are on the rise. With increased prosperity comes increases in population and pressures on our natural resources. In response, Sustain SC brings leaders together from across the business, government and conservation sectors to build consensus to support the preservation of our cherished outdoor heritage with the increasing prosperity we enjoy.

Working in the realm of conservation science and land protection in SC over the past two decades, I’ve recognized the uniqueness of our State in both our approach and success in conservation. South Carolina has abundant, intact natural resources, a land ethic and sense of place among our landowners and citizens, and an incredible capacity for collaboration. Sustain SC has created the venue, secured the tools, and convened the players to accomplish collaborative conservation at a new scale for SC.

Responsible growth requires planning, cooperation, a shared vision and the expectation that responsible leaders across our state will work together to set a higher standard, and collectively share in the success derived from those efforts.
