Sprouts is known for their low pay, labor violations and union-busting. Across the country, fast food and minimum wage workers are standing up and speaking out for their rights. On 4/15, we are shutting down Sprouts to protest their paving of historic farmland at the Gill Tract, and to stand with workers across the country demanding $15 and a Union.
Join us on April 15th, as we protest the paving of historic farmland at the opening of a new Sprouts in San Rafael – sandwiched in the middle of a DAY OF ACTIONS in solidarity with the Nationwide Fight for Fifteen.
Join us throughout the day as we travel from Oakland to San Rafael and back to Berkeley!
Tentative Schedule
8am: McDonald’s action in Oakland with Fight for Fifteen! Location TBA
12pm: Sprouts shut down in San Rafael
3pm: Return for Rally & March in Berkeley!

We need not only land, but a complete transformation of the food system. That means challenging corporations, and lifting up workers. Join us!
