A Santa Maria strawberry grower is sharing sweet fruit to show appreciation for local health care workers.

Corona Family Farms donated more than 40 box flats of sweet strawberries to the Arroyo Grande Community Hospital, French Hospital Medical Center and Marian Regional Medical Center.

"Employees of Corona Family Farms wanted to show their appreciation for the health care staff that are working daily to protect and serve our communities,” says Corona Family Farms owner, Anne Corona. Our company has been here for generations, and we wanted to recognize these hospitals that have also served the community for years, now more than ever.”

Corona Family Farms is a second-generation farming family and has been serving the Central Coast in agriculture, farming and distribution for more than 30 years.
