Another pumpkin season begins at Assiter Ranch as generations of family farming continue

Assiter Ranch has kept the tradition going for generations, with family farming at the center of the operation. Tim Assiter says the region offers conditions pumpkins actually like.

Another pumpkin season means another year of the ranch pulling double duty as a working farm and a fall destination for families. For people in Lubbock looking for something to do this time of year, it's a solid option.

The ranch sticking around season after season says something about how farming families adapt without abandoning what got them started in the first place.
