Tulare County pesticide inspector Juan Rangel (left) delivers masks for farmworkers at a farm in Exeter. This is an example of the State of California and local governments working collaboratively to provide face masks to farmworkers and employers during the COVID-19 crisis. To date, nearly 13 million masks have been delivered to county agricultural commissioners offices for direct distribution within the farm community.
Farmworkers or agricultural employers in need of surgical face masks are asked to contact their local county agricultural commissioner’s office for more information.
