Floyd County, Texas
The plains of the Texas Panhandle are home to Floyd County. It’s really flat. But there’s beauty in that vastness. Floydada, the county seat, is known as the Pumpkin Capital of Texas. No kidding. They grow some serious gourds.
The Caprock Escarpment runs along the county’s eastern edge, providing a dramatic change in scenery. Blanco Canyon cuts through the county, showcasing rugged Texas beauty.
This is cotton country. Fields of white stretch far come harvest time. The county is named after Dolphin Ward Floyd, an early settler. Winters can be relatively cold. But spring brings wildflowers, painting the landscape in cool colors. It’s a land of extremes.
