Cecil Farms Produce

Cecil Farms is a family owned and operated farm located on the western side of Owensboro.  Gary & Imelda Cecil, along with their children: Ryan, Suzanne & Katie (and spouses & grandchildren) are the faces behind the name. They have been growing fruits and vegetables for nearly 40 years: watermelons, squash, zucchini, bell peppers, cucumbers, pumpkins, and more for grocery stores. They even grew 300 acres of potatoes to make potato chips. Much of the land is now dedicated to growing seedless watermelons that are sold across North America, and they began growing produce for local customers in 2011.
