The melon (Cucumis melo ssp. agrestis var. makuwa) is an annual vine of the Cucurbitaceae family, a type of melon (Cucumis melo). Its primary origin is believed to be sub-Saharan Africa, with secondary origins in India, Russia, and South Korea.

Korean melon (Chamoe, 참외) has a subtly sweet, floral flavor with notes of honeydew, cucumber, and pear, and a firm, crisp, juicy texture similar to a crunchy apple or unripe peach. It's less intensely sweet than a cantaloupe and has a unique refreshing and slightly tangy quality.

A Canary melon is a large, sweet, oblong melon with bright yellow, smooth skin and juicy, pale white-green flesh that tastes like a sweeter, softer honeydew with subtle tropical fruit, pineapple, and banana notes. Rich in vitamins A and C and low in calories, it's a healthy and refreshing fruit for snacks, fruit salads, desserts, and smoothies. To choose a ripe melon, look for uniformly yellow, firm skin, a sweet aroma, and a slight give when gently pressed on the base.

Sweetness: It is known for its delightful sweetness. 

Tang: A subtle tartness or tanginess adds complexity to the flavor. 

Tropical Notes: Hints of banana and pineapple are often noted in its aromatics and taste. 

Musky Finish: It has a mellow, slightly musky finish, though less overpowering than some other melons. 

The flesh is soft, creamy, and succulent, providing a juicy texture that is softer than a cantaloupe or honeydew.

Canary melons are best served chilled.

Their flavor profile makes them excellent for fresh preparations, such as in fruit salads or as a simple sweet snack, often after dinner.

A white onion has thin, papery white skin and crisp, juicy white flesh with a sharp, mild, and slightly sweet flavor profile. It is often used raw in dishes like salads, salsas, and guacamole due to its mildness, but it can also be cooked in soups, stews, and other dishes where its flavor becomes sweeter and it breaks down more quickly than yellow onions.

These gourds display curvy, hourglass shaped fruits that are often dried out and used for bottles and birdhouses.

The Creole onion is a variety of Allium cepa (common onion) known for its heat and drought tolerance, making it especially well-suited for southern U.S. climates, particularly Louisiana, where it was developed and widely cultivated. It’s considered a "short-day" onion, meaning it begins forming bulbs when the day length reaches about 10–12 hours — a trait ideal for planting in the southern U.S., Mexico, and other regions near the equator.

The term “Creole” in its name reflects its Louisiana roots, associated with the Creole cuisine known for bold, rich flavors. While the exact breeder or development timeline is not always clearly documented, it's a regional heirloom variety that's been preserved and favored by gardeners and farmers in warm climates.

(60 days) Open-pollinated. Because of their cold hardiness, collards were a miracle crop that sustained many southern folks through the winters during the Great Depression. Vates is the acronym for Virginia Truck Experiment Station, a hotbed of collard research from 1907-1967. Introduced in the 1930s, this was probably the best-known of all the many developed there. Large upright 1½–2' plants give generous harvests of dark green thick crumpled leaves with a mild cabbage-like flavor. Will overwinter in high tunnels in our climate. 

The best environment to grow collard green or mustard greens is in full sun with plentiful, consistent moisture to thrive in your garden. Greens are frost tolerant, so growing them as a late season crop is ideal. Planting greens can also be done in early spring for a summer harvest, but more watering is likely necessary for them to grow successfully during the summer heat. Use insect netting to help protect from early insect infestations. Collards are best consumed in gumbo, braised, or sauteed.

COMMON PESTS: Aphids, Wihteflies

SUSCEPTIBLE TO: Bolting, Mosaic Virus, Fusarium Wilt
