REAVIS FARMS

Nestled in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas, the Reavis family has built a farm and ranching operation that is now in its third generation. J.D. Reavis came to the Valley in the 1950's looking for an opportunity to make a living and raise his family. His wife, Ruth Alice (nicknamed Duddy) took care of their son, Randy, while J.D. invested in the citrus industry, handling grove care. Later he expanded into the butane business. His son, Randy, worked with his Dad as he grew up and eventually decided that he wanted to farm. Randy married Kathy Jones from Mission, TX who was also raised on a farm. They had two sons and a daughter: Wayne, Jim Bob and Nancy.
