Joshua Fitzwater’s Watermelon Obsession

The publisher of Southern Grit Magazine is with us this week to talk watermelon, Virginian food, mid-century modern furniture, Joseph Hemings, watermelon, breakfast, Megan Thee Stallion, chicken muddle, and watermelon! Fitz talks about photographing his magazine (his photography is gorgeous), Carla Hall critiquing his watermelon jam, how yock originated in Virginia not New Orleans, among many other subjects.
