Workers at the @LSPnow & @LSAFnow are excited to announce that we are unionized through @OPEIULocal12! On Saturday, the LSP & LSAF Boards unanimously voted to affirm our right to unionize & provide voluntary recognition. Follow & RT to support us as we fight for a new contract.
UPDATE: We have received a signed voluntary recognition agreement from LSP/LSAF management and the Boards of Directors. We are working to establish times for bargaining as we strive for a contract that recognizes the dignity of all Land Stewardship Workers!
1/6 Today, on October 14, 2021, at 4:00 PM, we delivered our union petition signed by an overwhelming majority of Headway staff asking for voluntary recognition to our Chief Executive Officer, Patrick Dale

We met with Management yesterday. We have not come to an agreement, but hope to soon. Please keep taking action by signing and sharing our petition! #WallToWall#RecognizeUsAll#1u#UnionStrong https://t.co/DhoHYBn12r
Only about 14 more hours to take action! Please take just two minutes to contact the @LSPnow and @LSAFnow Interim ED and Board to urge them to #RecognizeUsAll https://t.co/DhoHYBECr1
But seriously - few classes of worker need union protection more than the nonprofit sector. I've 'involuntarily donated' at least as many hours as I've been paid for & that is the norm. Workers are also routinely asked to raise/donate $ even if not their job. Proud of @LSWunion
Thank you to former Land Stewardship staff for signing our petition calling on Management to #RecognizeUsAll: Terry VanDerPol, Bryan Simon, @jrupprecht_mn, Jenna Sandoe, @shakemeetsworld, @theRickMorris, @Katie_Doody, @flying_tomato, @robyngulley, & Amber Monaghan 🙌 #Solidarity
Way to organize @LSWunion.
Appreciate the wisdom of @LSPnow and voluntary recognition of the staff union. I hope that continues with the inclusion of staff who seek membership and representation.
Celebrating what we’ve accomplished together so far at Milk & Honey in St. Joseph! Cheers! 🍻 #UnionStrong#1u

We have 174 signatures! 🖊
Wouldn’t it be powerful to have 250 by Tuesday’s 9 a.m. meeting with Management?
Please sign and share - especially if you’re a member, supporter, former staff member, ally, or elected official!
We're thrilled that the team at the Land Stewardship Project and Land Stewardship Action Fund has joined our union family! Now they need our help - please sign the petition below to encourage management to recognize the entire bargaining unit.
Glad to support our union siblings at the Land Stewardship Project and Land Stewardship Action Fund! I just signed the petition asking management to recognize their entire bargaining unit - I hope you will, too. (Link in quoted tweet)
