UPDATE: SQUASH

May 2, 2023

Although squash markets are currently stable, prices are expected to rise in mid-May due to transition delays in the west. Markon First Crop (MFC) Zucchini and Yellow Squash are available.

  • Production will taper off in Northern Mexico in mid-May; scarring is being caused by strong winds
  • California’s Santa Maria season will be delayed by two weeks due to past weather conditions; expect a June 1 start date
  • Florida production is adequate in Plant City
  • Georgia growers have begun limited harvests
    • Yields will increase over the next two weeks
    • Zucchini and yellow squash quality is excellent
  • Expect steady pricing over the next two weeks
