The Blackwater River State Forest is growing. The Forest will expand by 800 acres after the acquisition of the Florida Forever Project Area Wolfe Creek Forest. The land is home to a number of rare and endangered species and serves as a major wildlife corridor with frontage on Big Coldwater Creek. The land will also act as a buffer for the Naval Air Station Whiting Field. The Blackwater River State Forest is Florida’s largest State Forest with over 211,000 acres.
