Hale's Best Melon

SKU:
$3.75
$3.75

per item

Classic heirloom melon with the juice and sweetness that we dream of, and the drought-tolerance we need. Hale's Best was bred in California's hot Imperial Valley by Japanese market farmers, and introduced to market by I.D. Hale. It's adaptability and flavor have made it a favorite ever since. I've been seeking out California heirlooms with excellent flavor, heat and drought tolerance, and adaptation to fluctuating temperatures, and I'm glad to have found this one. Grown by Kate O'Brien-Mann at Homeward Bounty Farm in Grenada, CA. 40 seeds
