Local berries shipped to China for Olympic athletes
Local Watsonville strawberries have arrived in Beijing. They'll satisfy Olympic participants' craving for the fresh treats. California Giant and Driscoll's both arranged for berries to be shipped to the waiting athletes.
It sounds as though Beijing is not looking like its regular self as we come up to the Olympic games. Things may go back to the regular grind once the hoopla is over, but I wonder. Once the young people there have feasted on tasty strawberries from the California Central Coast, life in Beijing may never be quite the same again.
