Moore County, Texas

Moore County is up in the Texas Panhandle. Dumas is the county seat, a small city with a big heart. Farmers here grow wheat, corn, and other crops that feed the nation. But oil and gas are also big business too.
The county is named after Edwin Ward Moore, a commodore in the Texas Navy. Winters can be harsh, with biting winds sweeping across the plains. But the people are tough and friendly, always ready to lend a hand.
It’s where the sky seems endless and the land stretches out forever. If you’re passing through, make sure to stop and chat with the locals. You might just end up staying.
