My Cantaloupes Are Ripe!



These are called Melon Golden Jenny (an heirloom).  They are succulent, sweet little 2 pound beauties.  My first time to grow cantaloupes.  They let go of the vine when they are ripe.  I was out picking things from the garden yesterday evening and saw that they had turned yellow and the smell was so sweet.  I was so happy to taste how wonderful they are.  I have already started saving the seeds so if any one would like some, I would love to share with you. I was reading about these cantaloupes and they are a version of the Jenny Lind variety. 

I forgot to take a picture of one cut open but I will post one soon so you can see the inside.
