Whether you rely on city water or draw from a private well, understanding how to test and treat drinking water for contaminants is essential for protecting your family's well-being.
Join Crystal Powers and Amy Timmerman, both Water & Cropping Systems Extension Educators, as they break down the hidden risks-like bacteria, nitrates, and other pollutants-and show how proper testing and treatment can keep every household safe. Safe water doesn't happen by chance; it happens when informed neighbors take action together.
Free, on-site water testing will also be provided by LENRD and LCNRD.
