Supplies of organic tender leaf items are extremely limited. Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) availability is limited; packer label and conventional product will be substituted as needed to fill orders.

Organic Arugula

• Cooler temperatures in the desert region slowed plant maturity and reduced yields; suppliers were forced to cut ahead of schedule, reducing availability at the end of the season
• Recent heat spike will lead to bolting and yellowing of leaves
• Expect extremely tight supplies and elevated prices for the next two weeks as a few growers have experienced complete crop failure
• Packer label and conventional product is being substituted when needed

Organic Spinach

• Expect tight supplies and high prices for the next two weeks
• Larger size spinach, such as clipped/stemless/teen varieties, sizing has drastically reduced
• Packer label, conventional, and baby spinach may be substituted as needed
