Join us at Trader Joe's in Costa Mesa as part of a coordinated nationwide action against Trader Joe’s and Perdue’s Petaluma Poultry.
Trader Joe’s continues to sell criminally abused chickens from Perdue’s Petaluma Poultry in their own packaging despite thousands of social media comments, emails, phone calls, letters, and store protests asking them to cut ties.
Direct Action Everywhere investigations have revealed widespread cruelty, neglect, and disease at Perdue’s Petaluma Poultry facilities, including birds who are so sick and injured they are unable to walk to food or water, birds with open wounds, and birds who entered the slaughterhouse scalder while still conscious and were boiled alive. These findings have been reported to authorities and to Trader Joe’s but they have failed to take action to stop this abuse. Instead, investigator and animal rescuer Zoe Rosenberg is facing 5 years in prison for rescuing four chickens from Perdue’s Petaluma Poultry slaughterhouse.
During this protest, we will once again ask Trader Joe’s to do the right thing and drop Perdue's Petaluma Poultry as a supplier.
WHERE: Trader Joes at 640 W. 17th Street, Costa Mesa.
Meet in the back of the parking lot at 2pm. We will be protesting for about 90 minutes.

WHO: Everyone is welcome! If you're nervous, you can come observe or hold a sign quietly.
If you have questions or need more information, please contact [email protected].
