Free drinking water for limited-resources farmers

CURES recently received a two year grant for limited resource growers* in the Salinas Valley who have a domestic well exceeding the California drinking water standard for nitrates. Through this grant, limited resource growers will get free drinking water either in the form of point-of-use treatment system or monthly bottled water delivery for the household.

For more information, please call 916-628-8241, email kara.s@curesworks.org or visit us at www.curesworks.org

The  start date for this project is not specific, it is rather a range from today until May.
*Limited resource growers are defined as those with a gross adjusted farm income of $176,800 or total household income of less than $28,980 for each of the last two years.
