Ana Garcia Aparicio, Gerawan worker

Yesterday we celebrated Mother’s Day. Today we ask you to take a moment and read the story of women who labor picking fruit at Gerawan by reading the Mother’s Day blog that Cesar’s widow Helen Chavez published in MomsRising.org @ http://bit.ly/1bDupxE or read it in spanish on MamásConPoder.org @ http://bit.ly/1KWf5Zy. You can read Ana Garcia Aparicio, whose story was shared in Helen’s blog here: “I’ve worked at the company la Prima for 10 years picking peaches and grape. I’m a mother of 4 children and my work helps with my household costs. At this company we’ve had many issues and injustices. We receive warnings for one rotten grape and even get suspended for 1 or 2 days. This is the reason it is so important for us that our contract be implemented.”
