Squash out of Michigan is in high demand! With Thanksgiving just around the corner, many grocery shoppers are craving fall favorites.
This year’s harvest supplied an ample amount of squash to meet that demand with harvest beginning back in June. The acorn squash supply actually flooded this year’s market, meaning prices are down.
Butternut pricing is comparable to last year and spaghetti squash is slightly up.
One family-owned company in Michigan says that labor costs continue to play a role in that specialty crop’s pricing.
