## Resource

Peak watermelon season is in full swing in California—here’s how to pick the perfect one: look for a firm, heavy melon with no bruises, then flip it to spot the creamy yellow ground spot where it ripened in the sun. In Sacramento, hunt for the sweet, tangy Black Diamond variety, which can weigh up to 50 pounds. Grab your summer fix at local stands like Vierra Farms, Cuevas Garden, Root Sixty-Four, Nick’s Produce, or Yolo Fruit Stand.
