About Brady
- I was born and raised in Fairfield, Texas.
- My father-in-law, Tim Cooper, started Cooper Farms on five acres of land in 1983 as a hobby.
- I became interested in farming at 16 years old and started working in the orchards for Tim Cooper, my high school girlfriend’s father.
- I earned my bachelor’s degree in horticulture with an emphasis in fruit production from Texas A&M University.
- I married my girlfriend and together we continued to work the farm and the country store.
- We’ve since taken over the farm and hope to give our kids the same experience as they grow up.
