NC Canary Melons!

Canary melons are yellow-skinned with ivory-colored flesh and a sweet, slightly tangy flavor. Think of it as a cross between a cantaloupe and a pear - but smoother, juicier, and with a touch of tropical brightness.

• Texture: Firm but juicy with a crisp bite (not mushy like overripe cantaloupe)

• Taste Notes: Sweet like honeydew, with subtle notes of banana and pineapple

• Best Uses: Fresh fruit salads, smoothies, wrapped in prosciutto, or chilled and eaten straight off the rind

Canary melons are also refreshing and hydrating, making them a perfect late-summer snack or dessert option, especially for customers seeking something different from the usual melon lineup.

Sold by the melon, which is usually about ~2# and sold in partnership with Butler Family Farm.
