The North Carolina
Watermelon Association Story
The North Carolina Watermelon
Association was organized in 1975 as the "N. C. Watermelon
Growers and Distributors Association".
Reorganized in 1982 with the present name,
NCWA is the North Carolina Chapter of the National Watermelon
Association, which also includes organizations from
Maryland-Delaware, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama,
Mississippi, Texas-Oklahoma, Missouri, Indiana, Illinois, and
California-Arizona.
NCWA is made up of members from both inside and outside of North
Carolina. An annual meeting of members is held yearly in March
where, with a traditional pageant, a state queen is chosen to
represent the association.
