After making some of the biggest offseason additions in the league, the Farm Fresh Foxies enter the 2026 PVL All-Filipino Conference as a true dark horse.
Farm Fresh is no longer easing into the conversation.
After flashes of potential last season, the Foxies made it clear this offseason that incremental upgrades were not enough. Instead, they opted for proven names and immediate impact, reshaping their roster around players who have delivered on the biggest stages.
The upcoming All-Filipino Conference will show how far those additions can take them.
A season of peaks and pauses
- All-Filipino Conference: 10th place
- PVL On Tour: 6th place
- Reinforced Conference: 5th place
The Foxies showed both promise and inconsistency in the 2025 PVL season.
Topping the Reinforced Conference preliminaries proved Farm Fresh could compete with the top teams in the league. The early playoff exit, however, underlined the need for steadier execution and more late-game options.
Star power arrives
Key additions: Ara Galang, Mylene Paat, Remy Palma, Bia General, Royse Tubino, Imee Hernandez
Key exits: Alessandro Lodi (coach), Caitlin Viray, Rachel Anne Daquis
Farm Fresh addressed those gaps by making some of the league’s most notable moves.
Galang and Paat immediately raise the Foxies’ offensive ceiling, giving the team multiple go-to options on the wing. Palma adds stability and experience in the middle, while the remaining additions strengthen depth across key positions.

Turning names into results
On paper, Farm Fresh looks deeper and more dangerous than a year ago.
The question now is whether they can translate that talent into consistent results, especially in All-Filipino play.
With Galang and Paat joining the core of Ces Molina, Trisha Tubu, Alohi Robins-Hardy, Lorene Toring, and Jolina Dela Cruz, the Foxies have all the tools to make a serious playoff run.
From promise to proof
Farm Fresh has already shown it can lead the pack in the preliminaries.
This time, the challenge is finishing stronger.
With their revamped lineup, the Foxies enter the All-Filipino Conference with higher expectations—and fewer excuses.
