Georgia Watermelon Association’s purpose is watermelon promotion from production to consumption. Promotions can vary from our watermelon queens making appearances and talking at functions, to providing informative links about watermelon and the watermelon industry and sharing interesting watermelon recipes with all of our fans.
The Georgia Watermelon Association’s Annual Meeting and Conference occurs in January of each year. This educational and fun-filled meeting is packed with activities that include the annual GWA Watermelon Queen Pageant.
