Or, a completely FAKE farmer running a “farm” that produces minimal product and/or products that are specialized and directed to certain constituencies... of the “woke” Leftist bent. Like techie millionaires who shop at the “organic” coop markets throughout the country. They do shop there- and several of the big players in that business were taken over some time back.
Amazon (Jeff Beezos, the wonderboy weirdo) bought Whole Foods (which was great before he came around, the Founder fought hard and could not beat out the contenders). Fresh Foods, and even... Aldi which is in expansion mode. Walmart is aware of this- and responding- but who wants to shop there with the flash gangs possible. There is a sub market of buyers of these “farms”— which constitute in aggregate often the size of say front company owned “organic” units (better price points for “organic”- a silly term)— even Mars, Inc (candy monsters) have gotten into the business. Label reading takes time when one is shopping groceries wherever.

Excellent points, all. Too bad our kids and Grandkids can’t read...which is all by design, Comrade. :(
You might like this gal. Her life story is awesome. She seems to be doing it right, and she is an AMERICAN SUPPLIER to Walmart, et al. Sarah Frey. I found her book VERY inspiring, though I only grow (in excess) for me and mine. ;)
Born into poverty, she’s a scrappy little boot-strapper! :)

You don’t have to buy it from Amazon, of course. ;)
