It's melon mania time at Sigona's! The best cantaloupe of the season is now available from Turlock. They're grown by the Smith family who have grown melons for more than 100 years. They're fourth generation farmers and they know how to grow the best! These are picked full slip, meaning they come off the vine naturally when they're perfectly ripe, flavorful and sweet. These have a very thin rind so it's almost all fruit! This week only, July 2 - 8th, 2025, you can get one for free with your coupon when you spend $30+ in our markets. Visit blog.sigonas.com to find the coupon and we'll see you in the store! Visit us in Redwood City and Palo Alto, California.
