When to enjoy.
King O’ The West Honeydew, western cantaloupe, and orangedew are at their peak from August through October.
King O’ The West Honeydew
When fully ripe, it has a white to creamy color with a honey flavor that melts in your mouth.
Western Cantaloupe
This fruit is rough on the outside, but juicy and sweet on the inside.
King O’ The West Orangedew
With all the goodness of a honeydew and a cantaloupe, this hybrid has a distinct sweet, cinnamon flavor under its yellow-orange exterior.
The difference you can taste.
The Smith family of the Turlock Fruit Company farm has been in the melon business for over 100 years. The warm days and cool nights of their San Joaquin Valley, California, location allows for high sugar absorption, which creates an extra-sweet flavor. These melons mature on the vine and are hand-selected for maximum ripeness.
