UPDATE: ARUGULA AND TENDER LEAF VARIETIES

October 26, 2025

Supplies of tender leaf and spring mix varieties are limited in the California growing regions.

  • Markon brand suppliers are meeting Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) Spring Mix and RSS Heritage Blend demand
  • Recent rain events in California the past two weeks have taken a toll on tender leaf items
  • Demand has shifted to arugula and tender leaf items due to shortages on lettuce and leaf items in California
  • Arugula supplies are the tightest within the tender leaf category due to sensitivity to abnormally low temperatures
  • Quality is average; yellowing leaves and product breakdown are main quality challenges
