Watermelon Festival – McDonald Farm (Day 2)

Day two of the Watermelon Festival keeps the momentum going at McDonald Farm, with another round of seed-spitting contests, farm-fresh watermelon, and the same easy summer programming that made day one a hit. If you missed the first day, this is your chance to catch the same laid-back farm energy.

Same advice applies: come ready for sun and open ground, and don’t rush it. A cold drink in hand and a slice of watermelon in the other is really the whole point — this is a wind-down-the-summer kind of event, best enjoyed at a wander-around pace with whoever you brought along.
