There’s good news and bad news for loyal fans of Brumley Gardens. After 12 years in Lake Highlands, Chris Brumley and his family have sold their farm in Wills Point. Owner Chris Brumley and his family will continue operating Brumley Gardens on Church Road. Billy and Valentina Anthony have purchased Brumley Farms in Wills Point, which is now operating as Mulberry Creek.
Brumley called his sale of the farm portion of the business “an incredibly hard decision,” but encouraged his valued customers to support this business “just as you’ve supported us over the years.”
“Brumley Farms has been a lifelong dream,” he posted to social media, “one that I poured my heart and soul into building. From walking the greenhouses with my dogs and cats, to caring for the cows, goats, sheep, and chickens, to watching the greenhouses come alive each season with beautiful flowers, shrubs, trees and perennials — every moment has meant the world to me. I have truly enjoyed every second of this journey. But now it is time for me to step back and pass the torch.”
On Church Road, nothing much has changed. Early this morning, crews were watering blossoms and loading bags of mulch as usual.
Brumley Gardens is at 10540 Church near 635 and Plano Road.
Note: The original version of this story mistakenly indicated that Brumley Gardens was also sold to the Anthony family. I regret that error and appreciate Chris’ patience with my mistake. We’re glad Brumley Gardens is still open and available for loyal customers in Lake Highlands and East Dallas.
