This Week’s Highlights – May 21, 2018

  • Blueberries – Supplies are below expectations due to the East Coast’s reduction of volume.
  • Broccoli – Supplies are limited as the CA coastal crops are ahead of schedule, then halted by below normal temps.
  • Green Bell Peppers – Demand exceeds supply.
  • Oranges – Tightened supplies of 113’s and smaller for both Navel grades.
  • Tomatoes – Active markets this week due to shorter supplies.  Reminder: DO NOT store tomatoes in the refrigerator; refrigerated tomatoes loose flavor and become mealy in texture.
