'It's a toxic blend': where the kids are warned not to swallow the bath water. Predominantly Latino towns in California like East Orosi face huge obstacles getting clean drinking water
An invisible line splits the rural road of Avenue 416 in California’s Tulare county, at the point where the nut trees stretch east toward the towering Sierra Nevada mountains in the distance. On one side of the line, residents have clean water. On the other side, they do not. On the other side lies East Orosi, an unincorporated community of about 700 where children grow up learning to never open their eyes or mouths while they shower. They know that what comes out of their faucets may harm them, and parents warn they must not swallow when they brush their teeth. They spend their lives sustaining themselves on bottled water while just one mile down Avenue 416, the same children they go to school with in the community of Orosi can drink from their taps freely and bathe without a second thought.
East Orosi is one of many predominantly Latino communities that suffer from contaminated drinking water that has exceeded federal limits set by the Environmental Protection Agency. This is an issue that affects 5.25m people across California.East Orosi, California is surrounded by orchards, mainly citrus, on January 22, 2021. East Orosi's drinking water isn't safe to drink due to nitrate contamination from surrounding farms.

'It's a toxic blend': where the kids are warned not to swallow the bath water. Predominantly Latino towns in California like East Orosi face huge obstacles getting clean drinking water
An invisible line splits the rural road of Avenue 416 in California’s Tulare county, at the point where the nut trees stretch east toward the towering Sierra Nevada mountains in the distance. On one side of the line, residents have clean water. On the other side, they do not. On the other side lies East Orosi, an unincorporated community of about 700 where children grow up learning to never open their eyes or mouths while they shower. They know that what comes out of their faucets may harm them, and parents warn they must not swallow when they brush their teeth. They spend their lives sustaining themselves on bottled water while just one mile down Avenue 416, the same children they go to school with in the community of Orosi can drink from their taps freely and bathe without a second thought.
East Orosi is one of many predominantly Latino communities that suffer from contaminated drinking water that has exceeded federal limits set by the Environmental Protection Agency. This is an issue that affects 5.25m people across California.A neighborhood in East Orosi, California on January 22, 2021. East Orosi's drinking water isn't safe to drink due to nitrate contamination from surrounding farms.

'It's a toxic blend': where the kids are warned not to swallow the bath water. Predominantly Latino towns in California like East Orosi face huge obstacles getting clean drinking water
An invisible line splits the rural road of Avenue 416 in California’s Tulare county, at the point where the nut trees stretch east toward the towering Sierra Nevada mountains in the distance. On one side of the line, residents have clean water. On the other side, they do not. On the other side lies East Orosi, an unincorporated community of about 700 where children grow up learning to never open their eyes or mouths while they shower. They know that what comes out of their faucets may harm them, and parents warn they must not swallow when they brush their teeth. They spend their lives sustaining themselves on bottled water while just one mile down Avenue 416, the same children they go to school with in the community of Orosi can drink from their taps freely and bathe without a second thought.
East Orosi is one of many predominantly Latino communities that suffer from contaminated drinking water that has exceeded federal limits set by the Environmental Protection Agency. This is an issue that affects 5.25m people across California.A farmworker wears a protective gear on the way to spraying an orchard in East Orosi, California on January 22, 2021. East Orosi's drinking water isn't safe to drink due to nitrate contamination from surrounding farms.
