Welcome to Simmons Oak Farms.  We are wholesale growers of  large shade trees and palms.  Established in 2002,  Simmons Oak Farms is located in Harlingen, Texas .   We are currently growing 150 acres of nursery material. 

All of our trees (and a few of our palms) are field-grown in RootMaker  bags.  This enables us to safely harvest most species year round.  The process prunes the roots as they reach the bags material, eliminating any circling roots.  The end product has a fibrous root system that is ready to take off after installation.

We are now growing an expanded number of palm trees.   Genetics, nutrition and spacing have given us beautiful specimen palms with hefty, healthy trunks!

Owners, Cecil Simmons and Leonard Simmons, are part of a family that has farmed in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of Texas since 1919 - five generations  so far.   In addition, our outside manager, Tony de la Rosa, brings over 30 years experience in the nursery trade.   For the perfect specimen tree or palm, give Tony or Mary  Beth, TCNP , a call.   If we don't grow it, we may be able to help you find it. 

Simmons Oak Farms is committed to providing the nursery trade with a quality product at a reasonable price.
