Upstate Forever promotes sensible growth and the protection of special places in the Upstate region of South Carolina. Founded in 1998, the membership-based, nonprofit organization covers ten counties (Abbeville, Anderson, Cherokee, Greenville, Greenwood, Laurens, Oconee, Pickens, Spartanburg, and Union), and we have three main programs: Land Trust, Sustainable Communities, and Clean Air & Water.
