Grapes of Hope for Oklahoma Welfare Reform
The federal Office of Economic Opportunity backs a grape growing project in Atoka County Oklahoma to lift 10 families from welfare. Tenants receive 160 acres and 10 000 vines with 60 000 cuttings under Community Action. Each acre aims to yield 4 tons of grapes at 200 dollars a ton, generating substantial income as land is paid off. The plan seeks to ease welfare reliance and create a model for future expansion.
