During watermelon season, this crew travels from the Coachella Valley to Los Baños, making multiple passes through the same rows to select only the melons that are ready to harvest.

And how do they know? It’s not just about size. One of their key indicators is color. 👀🍉

While another crew handles the heavy lifting and loading, these harvesters focus on one thing: finding the perfect melon. They leave the ones that aren’t ready and come back for them later.
