Time is more complex near the sea than in any other place, for in addition to the circling of the sun and the turning of the seasons, the waves beat out the passage of time on the rocks and the tides rise and fall as a great clepsydra – John Steinbeck, Tortilla Flat
I’ve lived in Southern Calfornia my entire life, and traveled up and down the coast, yet there are places I’ve never visited. Monterey is a small coastal city, rich in history and culture. A number of famed artists and writers once called the city home, including John Steinbeck, who’s legend lives on in statutes and memorials throughout the city.
The purpose of my trip was to meet with the California Strawberry Commission for an immersive, two-day dive into all things strawberry! We started in the fields and learned all about how strawberries are grown, picked, packed, and shipped to local stores across the country. After two days of strawberry-infused meals, I can honestly say that I am even more passionate about this fruit, packed with immune-boosting, cancer-fighting nutrients.
As is customary when I travel, I took a series of iPhone shots to photo journal my trip. Here are my favorites:
