Luke Brown Farms, located at 839 I-10 in Balmorhea, Texas, has been growing watermelons for generations, carrying on a rich agricultural tradition. Known for producing some of the region’s finest watermelons, the farm’s harvest is typically available in early July at major grocery stores, including HEB locations in the San Antonio and Houston areas, as well as Kroger stores.
Luke Brown, who grew up in a family of watermelon farmers, has embraced this way of life with passion and dedication. His connection to the watermelon industry runs deep—not only professionally but personally. Brown met his wife, a former Watermelon Queen, at the Annual Watermelon Convention, a fitting match for someone so closely tied to the fruit’s cultivation.
For Luke, farming watermelons isn’t just a livelihood; it’s a lifelong commitment to preserving a legacy of hard work and sweet rewards. To learn more about Luke Brown Farms and their seasonal offerings, visit their Facebook page.
