March madness

No, not the basketball kind.  It's that dreary mid March weather that is driving most of us mad about now.  Tempers are short in the produce business as the run up to Easter business starts.  The markets are unsettled, and while everyone wants and needs supply, no one wants to be on the wrong side of the price equation.   Lettuce and celery look to be short until the Yuma deal winds down and broccoli and cauliflower are cheap now, but will probably also see a bump as demand increases.  Spinach is also hard to come by at the moment, and with cold weather predicted in the east for the time being, it doesn't look to change soon.  By the first of April, we'll  all be fools.
