The Mast Store in Columbia is helping the Palmetto Conservation Foundation to continue its work to enhance the visitor’s experience along the Palmetto Trail and other PCF projects. As the Foundation’s signature project, the Palmetto Trail traverses the state with hiking and biking trails winding through mountain wilderness, forests, towns large and small, over creeks and rivers, and through swamps and marshlands.

With help from the PCF, the Finish the Trail Campaign has seen more than 350 miles of the Palmetto Trail completed across 14 counties.  There’s about 150 trail miles left to be completed to form a continuous ribbon from the mountains to the sea - from Walhalla in Oconee County to Awendaw in Charleston County. This incredible project will conserve more than 20,000 acres through land trusts and other formal agreements with public and private owners.

Come in and visit with the volunteers from the Palmetto Conservation Foundation to find out how you can get more involved or visit their website HERE.
