Edcouch centennial celebration set for September
· KRGV (NBC 5)
Edcouch is preparing to celebrate its centennial with a special event on Saturday, September 26, 2026, from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. at 520 Pacific St. The city, founded in 1926 when Edward Couch auctioned his land, has deep agricultural roots. Initially, it thrived with packing sheds and an ice plant, supported by workers from Mexico. Over the years, Edcouch shifted from citrus production to seasonal crops due to significant freezes in 1949 and 1951. The celebration will honor the city's rich history and its evolution over the past century.
