What Changed in Produce in 2025—and What’s Coming in 2026 - Fresh From the Field Fridays

This week on Fresh from the Field Fridays, Dan the Produce Man and Ross the Produce Boss dive into the biggest fresh produce and food trends of 2025—and look ahead to what’s coming in 2026.

From fresh-cut vs. bulk on the produce stand to mushrooms, berries, and the ever-growing wall of salads, we break down what’s hot, what’s changing, and what shoppers are actually buying.

We also tackle the age-old question: how many servings of fruits and vegetables should you really be eating? Remember “five a day”? What exactly counts as a serving—and how much is enough?

Plus, salad talk: how to dress your greens without drowning them in heavy, fatty dressings.

It’s all right here on Fresh from the Field Fridays, from the Produce Industry Network, powered by AgLife Media.
