If you have never been to the Elm Fork Nature Preserve in Carrollton, you will see a unique historical setting with wetlands, hardwood forest and a large pond near the Trinity River.

The Elm Fork Nature Preserve was purchased in 1861 by the Bramblitt Family,  as a Wood-right. The land was never clear-cut and in 1986 the 40 acres were given to the city of Carrollton as a self-contained ecosystem, virtually undisturbed. The Preserve features an Interpretive Center with a nature education library.
