I was shopping at Target today and ran across some of your seedless watermelons on sale for $3.99 a pop. Took one home, cracked it open and WOW!! The crispness, sweetness, and flavor were just amazing. Right now, I’m out in California going to school, but originally from Rocky Ford, Colorado — home of Rocky Ford Cantaloupe and watermelons. So I know a good melon when I come across one. Keep up the great work, and thanks for this delicious treat!

There are only a few unique individuals that stand above the crowd in the produce business, and Danny Andrews is certainly one of them. Weave been proud to partner with Danny since the inception of his company and we’ve found him to always maintain the highest standards of service, integrity and honesty.

Danny is a throwback to an era when men grew and sold their own harvest. If his name is on the box, there is always scrupulous honesty inside.
