History
Birdon was an unincorporated tomato growing settlement in southern Collier County, Florida, United States, located west of Ochopee. The industry town was established in 1930 by successful Miami businessmen, H.W. Bird and James Jaudon, following the construction of the Tamiami Trail. The name of the town is a combination of their two last names. Together they started the H.W. Bird Tomato Corporation.
