UPDATE: SQUASH

January 26, 2026

Supplies of zucchini and yellow squash will remain snug in Florida; cold winter conditions are driving up prices. Markon First Crop (MFC) Zucchini and Yellow Squash are available.

Florida

  • This week’s near freezing weather will lower yields
  • Crops haven’t completely rebounded from recent low temperatures
  • More cold mornings will continue to reduce production
  • Expect elevated markets for the next two weeks

Mexico

  • Supplies are average due to cooler weather and rain this past weekend in Western Mexico
  • Weather is expected to warm up this week (low 80s), which will increase yields heading into the weekend
  • Overall quality is good for both zucchini and yellow squash
  • Demand will rise this week due to poor Florida weather
  • Expect higher prices for the next two weeks
