Subject: Essential farm workers and C-19

Looks like tremendous opportunity to help farmworkers, ag industry, and keep food production humming.  Extension, YCEDA, Ian Pepper and others doing some exciting things.  Probably others can play in this space.  With $52m from California, there may be investments from Arizona too.
