Farmworkers from Vermont are hitting the road this March to spread the word about Milk with Dignity! Since Ben & Jerrys’ became the first company to sign onto the Milk with Dignity Program in 2017, farmworkers have seen groundbreaking improvements in human rights issues on dairy farms across the state. This program also supports farmers by securing a milk premium from big dairy-buying companies which goes directly to farmers and farmworkers. In the fall of 2019 farmworkers announced plans to expand the program to another regional dairy-buyer, the Hannaford supermarket! Join us to learn more about Milk with Dignity, exciting updates about the Hannaford Campaign and how to get involved!
