We know this is a busy, exciting time of year, and we’re right alongside you as the season unfolds.

Like many years before, the broader market continues to evolve. While there are some familiar economic headwinds, we’re approaching them with experience, flexibility, and a clear commitment to helping you succeed. Together, we’re adapting and finding ways to move forward with confidence.

What We’re Seeing

A combination of global and domestic factors is shaping today’s growing landscape.
Fuel prices continue to fluctuate, adding some variability to shipping and freight. The plastics industry is also navigating ongoing supply and sourcing challenges tied to the broader supply chain. While these dynamics aren’t new, they do bring renewed considerations for the season ahead, but we’re actively addressing them with your business in mind.

What This Means

• Fuel surcharges may appear on some shipments, particularly full truckload shipments.
• Plastic-based products, like pots, trays, stakes, and poly film, are seeing gradual monthly price adjustments, generally in the 7–15% range.
• Certain fertilizer inputs, especially urea-based formulas, have experienced modest increases of approximately 5–10%.

How We’re Supporting You

• We’re absorbing a range of fuel surcharges to help prevent incremental fees from adding up, especially on stocked product.
• We’re also taking on portions of plastics price increases and working hard to balance market realities without passing unnecessary volatility on to you.
• Our team continues to offer price comparisons and is always available to quote supplies or equipment to ensure you receive competitive value for what you need.

As your partner in the growing industry, our commitment remains steady: dependable service, transparent communication, and solutions that help reduce surprises during a demanding season. We’re here to keep things moving, support your plans, and contribute to a successful year ahead.

Here is to a strong, productive growing season, we are glad to be growing through it together.
