UPDATE: CANTALOUPE & HONEYDEW

September 28, 2021

Honeydew supplies are extremely limited as the San Joaquin Valley, California season comes to an end. Cantaloupe stocks are sufficient at this time but expected to tighten.

  • Markon First Crop Cantaloupes and Honeydew Melons are tight; packer label will be substituted as needed
  • Expect higher prices and limited supplies until the transition south during the week of October 11; new crop stocks are expected to ramp up by mid- to late October
  • Size substitutions may be required to fill orders
  • 6- and 8-count honeydew are extremely scarce
  • 9-count cantaloupes are limited
  • Overall quality is good
