🍂 October has flavor — and we’re bringing it fresh.

From bold chiles and vibrant tomatillos to tropical papayas, bananas and more, every color brings something different to the table. 🌶️🌿

A new month means more fresh produce, more flavors to discover and plenty of reasons to keep things colorful.

Welcome, October!

💚 Small fruit. Big flavor.

Behind its signature papery husk, the tomatillo brings a bright, tangy flavor that can completely transform when it hits the heat. Fresh and vibrant when raw, deeper and slightly sweeter when roasted — and, of course, the star behind a great salsa verde. 🌿🔥

“We are called to be architects of the future, not its victims.”
Today, that message hits a little differently.
Watching our STEP-UPP Class of 2026 graduate is a reminder that the future of the produce industry isn’t something we simply wait for….we help build it.
I’m especially proud to see all our students graduate, and grateful to have had the opportunity to be part of their journey. The best part of mentoring is realizing how much we learn from each other along the way.
Programs like STEP-UPP matter because they invest in people, create stronger leaders, and bring new perspectives into an industry that continues to evolve.
Congratulations to the Class of 2026! 🎓🌱 Proud to play a small part in growing the next generation of our industry.

🏈🌶️ This Hispanic Heritage Month, we’re celebrating the flavors, traditions and people that bring us together — because every gathering is better when there’s good food, familia and a little sabor. 🔥

From fresh chiles and tropical fruits to the ingredients behind our favorite traditions, there’s always a little piece of our heritage at the table.

Here’s to celebrating where we come from — one flavor at a time. 💚

This Labor Day, we celebrate the people who make fresh produce possible. 🌱

From the fields to packing, transportation, distribution and beyond, every step is powered by hardworking hands and a shared commitment to bringing fresh produce to our communities.

Today, we recognize every person behind the journey. Thank you for all that you do.

Happy Labor Day from Latin Specialties! 🇺🇸

This year, three words mean more to me than ever: pride, growth, and giving back. 💜

I couldn’t be prouder of my 2026 Foodservice STEP-UPP mentees and everything they’ve accomplished. Mentorship may begin with the intention of helping others grow, but this experience has reminded me that growth always goes both ways. I’ve learned just as much from them along the journey.

I can’t wait to celebrate their graduation at SEPC Southern Innovations in Nashville — and to welcome the STEP-UPP Foodservice Class of 2027 as their journey begins!

Proud mentor. Forever student. Always growing together.

🌱 Good produce can make an impact beyond the produce aisle.

Our Costa Rican cassava represents more than quality and freshness. It’s part of a commitment to the land, forests and ecosystems that make agriculture possible in the first place. 🌿

For us, caring about where our products come from also means caring about what we leave behind.

Grown with love and care. 💚

🌶️ One pepper. Three stages. Three completely different experiences.

Green jalapeños are picked early for that crisp, fresh bite. Leave them on the plant to fully ripen and they turn red, developing a sweeter, richer flavor. Smoke-dry those ripe red jalapeños, and you get the bold, smoky flavor of chipotle.

Same pepper. Nature, time and smoke do the rest. 🔥
