Donald Sherman, Watermelon Couch Road Trip pt.1

June 13, 2023.
My first stop was to check in with Donald Sherman in Fresno, CA. I interviewed him in the Spring while he was laying down his seeds. This time we walked his field as he gave insights on the crops and later discussed his business ventures.
