Tom and Jeff Asher join Leon Worden to discuss their ties to Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park.

The Asher family held ownership of the Triple A Ranch located in the western section of the preserve from the mid-1930s until 1970, when it was sold to Los Angeles County.

Over the years, the ranch underwent various transformations, serving as an alfalfa farm initially and later as a Bullfrog farm, with the Bullfrogs eventually being sold to local restaurants. Today, the property has evolved into a thriving nature preserve.

Within the oral history presented in this program, there may be offensive and incorrect portrayals of peoples, cultures, characters and behaviors. SCVTV does not condone these incorrect, outdated and offensive portrayals, but recognizes their existence as part of American and Santa Clarita history. Stereotypes were wrong in the past and are wrong today. We acknowledge their damaging and harmful effects. We hope that the presentation of the content in this program will enhance our understanding of eras before, lead to dialogue and especially a commitment to more inclusive practices going forward as well as a more equitable and representative future.

The goal of Legacy is to present stories that were created in and by people from the Santa Clarita Valley. We welcome community feedback and ideas about the discussions in Legacy to feedback@scvtv.com.
