Fun for the whole hive
Watermelon should be joyful. Honey is made for summer days, sticky smiles, picnics, and family gatherings big and small.
Naturally sweet and refreshing, Honey watermelons are an easy way to enjoy a feel‑good favorite that brings people together.
Bees and Watermelon:
Pollinator Education
Bees help grow the watermelon you love
Male & Female Flowers
Watermelon plants have separate male and female flowers, so pollen must move between them for fruit to grow.
Bees Power Our Watermelons
Watermelon pollen is heavy and sticky, so it doesn’t travel well by wind—bees and other pollinators do the work.
More Visits, Better Fruit
For a well-shaped melon, a female flower needs lots of pollen (about 500–1,000 grains), often from multiple bee visits in a short time.
Pollination Shapes the Fruit
If pollination is uneven, melons may grow misshapen or not develop fully.

Hive FAQ
What is HONEY watermelon?
HONEY is Fresh Pro’s watermelon brand, created to make it easier for shoppers to find a reliably great-tasting, sweet watermelon. It’s focused on consistent quality and an enjoyable eating experience from the first slice to the last. On this site, you’ll find tips, recipes, and simple how-to’s to help you get the most out of every melon.
Who grows HONEY watermelon?
HONEY watermelons are grown by Fresh Pro’s network of experienced growers. They work closely from planting through harvest to deliver watermelons that meet HONEY quality expectations. That grower care helps support a more consistent experience for shoppers.
What makes HONEY different?
HONEY is all about making sweet watermelon simple and dependable. Beyond the fruit itself, the brand helps you feel confident with easy guidance—how to pick, slice, store, and enjoy watermelon with recipes and tips. It’s a complete “from field to table” experience, not just a label.
How do you pick a good watermelon?
Flip it over and look for a creamy yellow field spot—that’s a sign it ripened on the ground. Choose one that feels heavy for its size (usually juicier), and give it a tap for a deep, hollow thump. Also aim for an even shape with no soft spots or major dents.
How do you store watermelon?
A whole watermelon can be kept at room temperature for a short time, but refrigeration helps keep it crisp—especially once it’s ripe. After cutting, store watermelon pieces in an airtight container in the refrigerator. For best flavor and texture, enjoy cut watermelon within a few days.
Do you need to wash watermelon before cutting?
Yes—wash the outside of the watermelon before you slice it. Your knife cuts through the rind first and washing helps prevent anything on the rind from transferring to the fruit. Use a clean cutting board and knife, too, for better watermelon food safety.
Do bees pollinate watermelon?
Yes—bees play a major role in the pollination of watermelon. Watermelon pollen is heavy and sticky, so it doesn’t move well by wind; bee visits help transfer pollen between flowers so fruit can develop. Healthy pollinator activity supports good fruit set and well-formed watermelons.
