Hi Brian:
Most of the non cooperative watermelon growers reside in North Carolina and
the folks at Allardt From Tenn are also in that category. But, there are
some growers from both states who are very cooperative.
However, there are many very cooperative watermelon growers all over the US
and Canada and most of them are members of The Giant Watermelon web site.

Yep! There are many a story that backs up the fact that these watermelon
growers are a breed apart! Too bad, BF
