About this site

Our mission

When someone searches "Hermiston watermelons," "Oregon watermelon season," or "why are Hermiston melons sweet," they should find accurate, readable answers — not a parked domain or generic aggregator. This site documents the region's agricultural heritage, teaches watermelon basics, and will list local growers as the directory fills in.

Who we are

This site is operated independently from the City of Hermiston unless a formal partnership is announced. Content is researched from public sources including regional news, extension publications, and industry reporting. Corrections welcome at hootabraham@gmail.com.

Related domains

The operator also holds related regional domains for future use in a unified Hermiston agriculture brand (including hermistonmelons.com and hermistonwatermelon.com). Consolidation with 301 redirects is planned.
