Natural Grocers Providing Free Filtered Water for the Communities of Lafayette, LA Through Feb. 23

With historically cold weather and winter storms leaving multiple cities across Louisiana without water or with boil water orders, Natural Grocers is inviting members of its Lafayette, LA community to come in for free water from its store’s reverse osmosis water filtration machine. Free water will be available today through Tuesday, Feb. 23, 2021.

Lafayette’s water supply system has been impacted by adverse weather, triggering a requirement to boil water before consumption, including eating, drinking, washing hands and faces and brushing teeth. The ultraviolet sterilization process used in Natural Grocers water dispensers disinfects the water with UV light, designed to provide safe high-quality water that does not need to be boiled before consumption. Additionally, via multiple filtration steps, the reverse osmosis process is intended to filter out suspended particles, chlorine and a wide range of chemicals, salts, lead, impurities and more.

Due to capacity limitations of the store’s water filtration system, which can only pump 75 gallons of water every other hour, each person is limited to two free gallons of water. To fill up on free water from the organic and natural grocery retailer, customers should bring their filled receptacle to the register, along with any items they are purchasing. Customers will need to provide their own jugs and bottles.

Natural Grocers’ Lafayette, LA store is located at 1925 Kaliste Saloom Road. Additional store details can be found here.
