UPDATE: CELERY

January 07, 2021

Celery markets remain elevated due to limited supplies.  

  • Markon First Crop Celery is available
  • Stocks are below normal levels in Coachella, Oxnard, and Santa Maria, California due to recent strong holiday demand and persistently cold temperatures
  • Production in Florida is ramping up after being delayed two to three weeks by inclement weather; size is increasing, but remains smaller than ideal
  • Disease pressure, such as fusarium, continues to reduce harvestable stalks in some lots in Oxnard, California
  • Overall quality is excellent in all growing regions: stalks are firm with deep color  
  • Markets are expected to remain active through January
