Join us for a stop on Migrant Justice's April 2023 Milk with Dignity Tour!

Saturday, 4/15 11am at the Church of the Good Shepheard (39 Washington St., Barre). After the presentation, we will gather outside of the Barre Hannaford (456 S. Barre Rd.), 12:30-1 p.m. Please RSVP: https://www.ruralvermont.org/events

Immigrant dairy workers are traveling across the northeast this spring to connect with supporters and take action for Milk with Dignity! Farmworker organization Migrant Justice is calling on grocery chain Hannaford supermarkets to source its store-brand milk from farms where workers' human rights are independently monitored and protected, and the long-term interests of farm owners are supported. Join us to learn more about the rampant abuses that workers face on dairy farms and the powerful organizing they are doing to improve conditions and protect their rights. During this organizing meeting, you will hear directly from farmworkers, learn about the Milk with Dignity Program, take collective action, and gain the tools you need to join this inspiring struggle for human rights.
