UPDATE: ARUGULA AND TENDER LEAF VARIETIES

April 19, 2023

Supplies of tender leaf/spring mix varieties are limited in the Arizona and California growing districts.

  • Rain in February and March delayed planting due to wet, muddy conditions
  • Abnormally low temperatures slowed plant maturity
  • Markon brand suppliers are meeting Markon’s Ready-Set-Serve (RSS) Spring Mix and RSS Heritage Blend demand but are struggling to cover a 100% of RSS Arugula orders
  • Arugula supplies are the tightest within the tender leaf category due to its sensitivity to abnormally low temperatures
  • Yellowing leaves and product breakdown are the main quality challenges

Please contact your Markon customer service representative for more information.
