Umatilla County has historically supported about five major commercial watermelon growers and several smaller-acreage farms. We are building verified listings with farm names, stand locations, season hours, and contact information.

Known production context

Hermiston watermelons have been grown by multi-generational family farms for decades. Commercial marketing has also moved through regional produce distributors that handle sales for many local growers. Retail shoppers often find Hermiston-labeled melons without buying direct from the farm — this directory will clarify both paths.
