The royal court of melons.

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, this melon has a white to creamy color with a honey flavor that melts in your mouth.

Western Cantaloupe

This oval fruit is rough on the outside, tender and sweet on the inside.

King O’ The West Orangedew

With all the goodness of a honeydew and a cantaloupe, this hybrid has a sweet cinnamon flavor under its yellow-orange exterior.

Grown to reign over the rest.

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 allow for high sugar absorption, which creates an extra-sweet flavor. These melons mature on the vine and are hand-selected for maximum ripeness.
