Watermelon Harvests

Watermelons have been grown here since about 2011–2012. From 2021 to 2024, the years of commercial growing, the farm averaged roughly 15,000 to 20,000 lb of watermelon a year, sold in 100 Mile House, Williams Lake, Quesnel and Prince George, where our melons became locally famous (the family's estimate).
