Welcome to Savannah River

Welcome to the USDA Forest Service Savannah River, where we care for the forests that support both the land and the people who depend on it. Our team works every day to keep these woodlands healthy, resilient, and thriving for future generations.

These forests shelter a remarkable range of wildlife, including threatened, endangered, and sensitive species. By restoring habitats and protecting native plants and animals, we help maintain the natural balance that makes this landscape so unique.

Our stewardship also supports local communities. Through sustainable harvesting of forest products, we help strengthen the regional economy while protecting the watersheds that provide clean, reliable water.

Savannah River plays a special role in supporting the national security mission of the Savannah River Site. By maintaining strong, healthy landscapes around critical facilities, we help protect both the environment and the nation.
