El Hormiguero

Join our community showing up for NYC-area food factory workers building their own unions.

el hormiguero (the anthill) is a group of people supporting NYC-area food factory workers organizing for dignified jobs and power in society with Brandworkers and our union partner, the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW). As part of el hormiguero you can give monthly, volunteer, and participate in actions. There’s a role for everyone!

“NYC food workers have a right to a safe workplace, but the only way to exercise that right is through organization. I'm proud to support their struggle for safety.”

“Through el hormiguero I’ve had the chance to work alongside like minded people in close coordination with food manufacturing workers to support their campaigns to join with their coworkers and build power on the job.The campaigns that workers are leading represent the core of the labor movement to me and it’s an honor to get to support that however I can. ”
