UPDATE: BRUSSELS SPROUTS

October 22, 2025

Prices are easing as supplies increase across West Coast growing regions. Markon First Crop (MFC) and Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) Brussels Sprouts remain limited; packer label is being substituted where necessary.

  • Volume is gradually increasing in the Salinas and Santa Maria Valleys
  • Quality ranges from fair to average; discoloration, excessive seeder, and small size have been reported
  • Jumbo sprouts have been especially affected by excessive seeder (long internal stems), skewing yields towards smaller sizes
  • Weather interruptions on California’s Central Coast and Diamondback moth pupa/larvae continue to reduce overall volume
  • Expect lower pricing and improved availability until holiday demand increases over the next several weeks
