death of buzzwords

Do you know your farmer?

Local farming has become an aesthetic — a curated image sold in mason jars and burlap wraps, more brand than backbone. Once a way of life rooted in honesty and earth, it's now a marketing strategy, polished and packaged to appeal, not to nourish. The illusion sells, while the truth is buried beneath labels and lifestyle.

  • Mr. Muhammad - Owner/Farmer

    Small farmers are increasingly being displaced from both the farmers market landscape and the broader food system by the rise of commercialized “organic” branding, which has been hijacked by Big Agriculture and large grocery chains. What began as a grassroots movement rooted in sustainability, soil health, and local resilience has been commodified into a marketing tool — one that allows industrial-scale producers to meet minimum certification standards while maintaining the illusion of ethical farming. As supermarkets fill their shelves with mass-produced "organic" goods shipped from thousands of miles away, the public is misled into believing they’re supporting small-scale, environmentally-conscious agriculture. Meanwhile, the very farmers who pioneered these practices are priced out, undercut, and marginalized — their authentic, community-based efforts drowned out by corporate greenwashing.

  • A quiet revolution is taking root as everyday people — teachers, artists, laborers, and dreamers — leave behind conventional paths to become farmers, not just in occupation but in purpose. Disillusioned with the industrial food system and its hollow labels, they’re cultivating a new model: one rooted in old-world agricultural wisdom, truly sustainable economics, and a deep respect for health, nature, and community. These new farmers are restoring the lost connection between food and land, rejecting shortcuts, and offering real alternatives to the sterile aisles of commercial grocery stores.

    I am one of them. Part of a rising tide reclaiming the soil, rewriting the narrative, and killing the buzzword “organic” — not out of rejection, but in pursuit of something far more honest, grounded, and real.
