2 Heat Damage Update: Our recent wicked heat wave has negatively impacted many locally grown items, including Berries, Stonefruit, Asian Pears, Lettuce, Organic Toybox Squash & Heirloom Tomatoes- among other crops. Growers are still sorting out how extensive losses will be. Expect fluctuations in quality, availability & pricing. Berries, Lettuce & Tomatoes hardest hit, delayed heat damage now cropping up. Quality and Supply News Local Baby Greens/Chicories/Lettuce: While conventional Radicchio & Treviso have low yields projected for next month (first, extreme heat caused unseasonal bolting, & now cooler temperatures causing slow growth), County Line Organic Mixed Chicories are now in stock for the Fall/Winter season. The 5lb pack includes Castelfranco, Escarole, Frisee, Palla Blanco, Palla Rosa & Pan De Zucchero Chicories. County Line s Petaluma crop of Organic Little Gem Lettuces is ending & we re limited to twice a week deliveries; good news is that their Southern fields will be harvest-ready by early October. Also, new crop Conventional Sweet Gem Lettuce is coming on, limited to start. We have you covered with a limited amount of 5lb packed Little Gem from Coke Farms; expect a similar pack & yield. Last, high heat & mildew issues continue to limit supplies of Arugula, Spring Mix & Baby Spinach. Broccoli, Broccolini & Crowns: all in short supply because of last heat wave; strong/rising market. Cauliflower market expected to follow. Figs: Black Mission season ending; we ll see some Brown Turkey to cover demand. Knoll Farms Fig season looks to be over- early this year because of heat waves in the recent past. Grapefruit: CA season winding down. 48 count especially limited; we re using different sizes as needed to cover your orders. New crop TX due mid-october. Mache: Lakeville Specialty limited for 2 weeks; heat slows germination & growth. Maradol Papaya: New crop MX to be harvest-ready in 1 month; expect small fruit. Heirloom Tomatoes: ending early this season-hammered by heat & now cooler weather means slower growth. Shelf life is sub-par; the fruit has been stressed. Zucchini: CA season ending. That, plus heavy TX pull equals strong market & possible shortages until newer Nogales crops start up in mid-october.
