Our farmers markets are ripe with all colors of melons this time of year and there are as many different tastes as there are variations of orange, honey and green.
Netted melons (Reticulatus) are wrapped in a network of surface veins and come in delicious shades.
Here are a dozen varieties reviewed and pictured so you’ll be ready for your next market shopping trip!
