The National Forest Foundation (NFF) is facilitating the restoration of Cottonwood Creek Watershed on the Lyndon B. Johnson National Grassland in Wise County, Texas. The watershed spans 5,700 acres, including 4,000 acres of National Forest land and 1,700 acres of private land, with 29 miles of mapped streams. This project will be completed in phases, with phase 1 focusing on two stream reaches totaling 80 acres and 1.3 miles of primary stream channel. Restoration will bring stability to the ecosystem preserving it for future generations to reconnect with nature.
