Thursday thoughts - We received this feedback and are so grateful to our first time customer Amber! Good job Aaron Bazan for providing great customer service and for requesting a review...we were so happy that the Black Mamba lived up to it's fame!
This defines the difference in the many dark rind watermelons. There are many that look like ours, but the taste and sweetness are distinct to our Black Mamba. Grown locally by Farmer Bob Walchli, and his wife Rachelle Walchli. You'll find Rachelle and their girls selling at many farmers markets across the region.

If you haven't had one yet, it's not to late! Visit us and one of our markets!
The second picture show the field today with plenty of new black Mambas growing to perfection for your table!

Wind down Wednesday - Whew!!! Hermiston you tuckered Gigi out!
She said it was the sweetest dreams on the sweetest watermelon...the Black Mamba of course.
Fun fact: the Black Mamba watermelon is only grown by our Farmer Bob Walchli...no one else in the nation sells the black mamba.

Make sure you check our schedule and make it to one of our markets to pick up your watermelons!
