Summer’s not quite over and we’re still neck deep in California-grown melons sourced from local farms throughout Yolo County. Grab your melon baller and hit up Nugget Markets to give these sweet treats a try. 

Canary: The bright yellow skin will catch your attention in the produce aisle and the crisp, super sweet, creamy-colored flesh will have you reaching for another slice! 

Galia: A refreshing choice for any occasion, these melons have green flesh similar to a honeydew and a sweet tropical flavor.

Goddess: Fruity and amazingly delicious in smoothies, these melons look a lot like a cantaloupe but the "netting" on the skin is not as raised and the flesh is softer. 

Piel De Sapo: In Spanish the name of this melon means “frog skin” because of its green and yellow splotches. The inside has a similar texture and flavor to honeydew but even sweeter, crisper and more aromatic.

Sharlyn: These look like an elongated cantaloupe with a mosaic-like netting on the outside and a very sweet and flavorful inside.

Yellow Doll Watermelons: These adorable melons are bright yellow on the inside and their sweet flavor will bring a sweet ray of sunshine to your day. Their high sugar content make for extra sweet flavor and the softer skin means it’s easy to cut up and enjoy! 

Selection may vary by location.
