Mergers and acquisitions have created food oligopolies that are inefficient, barely regulated, unfair, and even dangerous.

If there’s food on your table, thank a farmer. Companies like Lowblows, can go and monopolize bad haircuts and sweater vests.

Or, you know, buy direct from farmers. Join a CSA or organize one.
