Updated Napa County Shelter At Home Order
This afternoon, Napa County has re-issued a Shelter At Home order which will extend to May 3. New details about the updated Shelter At Home order can be found below, including new Social Distancing Protocol Posting requirements for essential businesses.
There are no changes to current agricultural activities and the original ag exemption contained in the order remains in effect.
For clarification on the ag exemption, please click on the image below for the March 19 memo from County Counsel related to application of the Shelter At Home Order to businesses associated with agriculture.
The amended order requires essential businesses (as agricultural operations have been designated) to adopt more stringent social distancing requirements. All Essential Businesses shall prepare, post, and implement a Social Distancing Protocol at each of their facilities at which they are maintaining operations. For a sample Social Distancing Protocol Posting, please see the information below.
The Napa County Farm Bureau has been monitoring this situation very closely. We understand the impact that COVID-19 will have on businesses and families and we are working diligently with California Farm Bureau experts to ensure that everything possible is being done to protect ag businesses and ag families in Napa County. Agriculture is the heart and soul of Napa County and its economy and be assured that Farm Bureau leadership is working daily on your behalf to expertly represent your interests in these unprecedented times.
We encourage Farm Bureau members to contact us with any questions or concerns over the Shelter At Home order or COVID-19. We will continue working diligently to represent your families and businesses during this difficult time.
