Picture this: a hot summers day, watermelon fields, watermelon queens and gnats. When I say hot, I mean hot! Think about what a 110-degree day feels like!

After this description you may be wondering where we are. “Where the Food Comes From” visited Cordele, GA on June 16. We had the privilege of meeting the wonderful folks at Leger & Son, Inc. and Cordele-Crisp County Chamber of Commerce.

Who doesn’t like watermelon? The amazing red color, juiciness and sweetness totally screams summer. And in May through September it is so welcomed – especially during those long “dog days of summer.”
