Watermelons, Anyone?

A happy group of volunteers from EGFBS were set loose in a watermelon patch at Davis Ranch, in Sloughhouse. Guess how many watermelons they picked? Last count was 148 watermelons.

Through the generosity of the people at Davis Ranch, EGFBS was invited to come out and pick their field clean. As we unloaded the truck, we gave watermelons to our lucky clients. Everyone who received a watermelon smiled and was thankful for the wonderful treat. Thanks, Davis Ranch!

Our volunteer “picking crew” consisted of eight hearty individuals. They all had a great time and all came back dirty from the field work. Ken, one of our long-time, faithful volunteers accompanied this work crew. It amazed me to see him lift and move those watermelons.
