Changing weather patterns have profoundly affected California farmers who grow one crop in particular -- organic strawberries.
WALNUT CREEK — Changing weather patterns are profoundly affecting those who grow our produce and one crop in particular has really taken it on the chin in recent weeks — organic strawberries.
In this case, the food was coming from Watsonville in Monterey County. JSM Organic’s’ nine-acre strawberry field may be owned by Javier Zamora but he said, really, it’s Mother Nature who’s in charge. “We were fully loaded with strawberries and Mother Nature threw us a curve ball. They all went bad,” Zamora said. “That specific week, we lost 95 percent of them. Probably, really closer to 100 percent.”
