Driscoll's Under Fire Over Pesticides

Activists stormed Driscoll’s HQ with a bold “Enough is Enough” message, demanding an end to organophosphate pesticides near Pajaro Valley schools — despite a county study claiming no spike in childhood cancer rates.

One-mile school buffers, real-time pesticide alerts, organic pilot programs, and full phase-out of toxic fumigants. Driscoll’s counters with investments in organic farming and urges broader data analysis — but protesters say the clock’s ticking.
