Yeah, that's my governor. Telling Chik-fil-A, don't mess with Vermont, don't mess with Kale, and don't mess with small businesses and local farms.
In his words to Chik-fil-A today, "Don't interfere with buy local, don't interfere with our agricultural renaissance, because more and more Vermonters care about where their food comes from, what's in it, and who grew it. And don't mess with our effort to grow jobs one job at a time."
Hooray! Oh how I love to hear a politician speak this way-- about local eating, caring where and how our food is produced-- if only more leaders would talk about these critically fundamental and important issues so broken in the industrial and corporate run food supply.
I am proud that Governor Shumlin is taking a stand on the ridiculousness of this effort of Chik-fil-A to close down Bo's Eat More Kale business.
You can support the Bo's legal defense fund against Chik-fil-A here, and get that sweet Team Kale shirt, in addition to some groovy stickers.
