Sherman County, Texas

Sherman County is up in the Texas Panhandle, bordering Oklahoma. It’s where the sky seems endless. Stratford, the county seat, is home to about 2,000 folks.
Farmers here know their stuff when it comes to wheat and corn. Cattle ranching is big business too. You’ll see combine harvesters and irrigation pivots across the landscape.
Winters can be harsh, with blizzards sometimes sweeping across the plains. But come spring, the land bursts into life. It’s a tough place that breeds tough people.
