UPDATE: SQUASH

October 6, 2025

Squash will transition south in October due to cool autumn weather. West Mexico crops are starting next week. Markon First Crop (MFC) Zucchini and Yellow Squash are available.

  • Midwest production is expected to end over the next two weeks
  • Heavy volumes in North Carolina and Georgia are driving prices down; quality is very good
  • California’s Santa Maria region will end abruptly this weekend due to recent rain and high humidity
    • The Central Valley has steady production and good quality
  • West Mexico growers (crossing in Nogales) are starting next week with light volume; yellow squash is limited
    • The Baja Peninsula has steady light volume crossing into Otay Mesa
  • Expect continued low prices on the east coast and slightly higher prices in the West
