Buckeye History

When a group of settlers left Ohio and arrived in the area in 1888, it was the start of what is now the town of Buckeye. Jackson Sydney built a canal to help haul water to his crops and named the canal Buckeye, in honor of the state he left. The name was later passed on to the town.
throughout the years, inhabitants of the land have endured floods and droughts. However, these people were always able to transform the land from a barren desert into a fertile farming valley. Cotton, feed grains, and vegetables flourish in the area’s warm climate. Today, Buckeye holds onto its farming heritage.
