Greensboro’s Ed Sunday Winters (center) joined the Migrant Justice Milk With Dignity picket at Hannaford’s in Morrisville Saturday, November 15. He said, “I went because I want Americans to have ice cream, milk and butter produced by people, many of whom do what they do so their families a long way away can have a [more comfortable] life.”

About 50 people gathered along the driveway to Hannaford in Morrisville Saturday for a Milk With Dignity picket urging the store to support its principles of humane working conditions. A speaker said the parent company in Holland has met with Milk with Dignity representatives and sent a team of investigators to Vermont to assess the working/living conditions of farm workers on farms that supply Hannaford’s with milk. The company claims the conditions are fine, said the speaker.
