The local union is now home to 85 new members.
"It has been very inspiring to see such a passionate group of people gather and exercise their right to unionize,” said Karen Munk, one of the workers at Mama Earth. "Our collective voices will bring positive change to the workplace. I can't wait to see what great things will be achieved in the days and years to come."
Mama Earth Organics is located in East York and prepares and delivers fresh and organic food baskets.
