RIVERBY, TX — One of largest environmental efforts in the country has just rebirthed a Texas stream. This summer, the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) orchestrated improvements to the Willow Branch Creek, which sits at the heart of 17,000 acres being restored as part of its Bois d’Arc Lake construction project.
For more than 100 years Riverby Ranch was a fixture of the Fannin County landscape. Now, with the help of locals residents, they're working on bringing back its history in a new way.
