Markon First Crop (MFC) Onions remain available in California’s Imperial Valley region. The New Mexico season will get underway this week.         

California

  • Demand is strong for supplies shipping out of the Imperial Valley; this region is covering the majority of domestic onion orders

  • Onions will ship out of the Imperial Valley through June 10
  • Central and Northern California production will begin approximately one week later than normal
    • Limited supplies will be available the week of June 12
    • Rain that soaked the growing areas this past winter and early spring is impacting availability and size
