UPDATE: SQUASH

March 7, 2023

Spring squash harvesting will transition to new crop growing regions during the month of March. Yellow squash markets are climbing due to extremely limited supplies.

  • Markon First Crop (MFC) Zucchini is available; MFC Yellow Squash is sporadic
  • Mexican zucchini volume will fall over the next week as growers begin transitioning from Sinaloa to Sonora; yellow squash is snug due to past cold weather
  • Florida squash will transition from South Florida to Plant City over the next two weeks, increasing overall availability
    • Zucchini quality has improved
    • Yellow squash quality is average
  • Expect elevated yellow squash prices to persist over the next two weeks while zucchini markets will increase slightly
