I noticed a temporary stand on the corner of Hwy 20 and Garden Ave. (that’s the street by Texaco) — Red Hat Melons. If you like melon, you might want to get out there and check it out before they are gone.
I also wanted to point out Kisler Farms. They are a bit off the beaten track and unless you already know about them or happen to catch sight of the sign on Hwy 20 & Garden Ave., you might never know they are out there. Their site confuses me because I thought they had more than tomato and peppers, but maybe I am thinking of someone else out that way.
I’ll just have to take a drive out there and see what’s up!
Edit: Okay, when I went by this morning I studied the signs — Kisler has tomatoes and peppers, and it’s Drahnacre Farms that has other produce. They are on Strawberry Ln, off Garden Ave.
Stumble It!

Red Hat melons can be found at the local farmers markets as well as the roadside stand. They are the best melons you will ever eat. A wide variety will acommodate any taste and they are always vine ripened for premium quality. I have had the fortune of enjoying these melons for nearly 20 years and encourage everyone to at least stop for a free taster to see for themselves why they are the best.

It’s about more than just taste or experience in growing. What about the chemicals that they put on your food via that big red and white helicopter? I personally witnessed the act this spring and early summer. What if these old hands actually told us they were doing that? How many other things were sprayed by the drift? Kisler’s tomatoes and peppers???
