While the origin of melons dates back to the southern African plains, trade has made it a truly global fruit. Melons can be found growing on every continent with the exception of Antarctica. General opinion, combined with nitrogen rich soils have led to southwestern Indiana to truly become the melon capitol of the world. Knox County, Indiana in particular has what is widely believed to be the best tasting watermelon, cantaloupe, and honey-dew melon in the world today. Though this honor is bestowed for taste, rather than volume of production.

The Melons of South West France and the Charentaise Melon variety make this a contender for Melon capital of the world.
