THE QUICK READ
Watsonville, California is a center of strawberry and berry production along the Central Coast, and Americold's cold storage facility there supports that harvest with a 14,843-pound ammonia refrigeration system. The warehouse employs about 15 people and handles produce moving from the Pajaro Valley's fields into the cold chain. Its location in Santa Cruz County puts it between the farmland and the San Francisco Bay Area markets where much of that produce ends up.
