Statement from the UFW and Threemile Canyon Farms - November 27, 2006
On November 27, 2006, a neutral arbitrator certified that a majority of workers at Threemile Canyon Farms signed union authorization cards indicating their desire for the United Farm Workers of America to represent them. As a result, the Arbitrator certified the UFW as the representative of the Dairy and Farm Workers at Threemile.

Certification of majority status for the union includes workers at the Columbia River Dairies and RDO Bos Farms (dairy and farming operations) and covers approximately 250 workers.

Threemile and the UFW had previously agreed to conduct the card-check process as part of a private agreement originally signed on August 21, 2006, and significantly modified as of November 9, 2006.

As part of the agreement, the UFW has committed to work cooperatively with Threemile to support sales and promote marketing of its products to customers. Also, Threemile and the UFW will soon begin Labor Contract negotiations.
