Most business plans were built for a world you’re trying to dismantle. They prioritize extraction, externalize harm, and assume that low wages, burnout, and environmental damage are simply “the cost of doing business.” If you’re building a food enterprise rooted in justice — one that honors workers, land, culture, and community — you already know the traditional business plan model cannot hold your vision.

Most people build their entire livelihood on a single employer, even though every business textbook warns against that exact structure. In business, relying on one client for most of your revenue is considered a major risk. It limits your stability, your negotiating power, and your ability to adapt when the market shifts. Yet in our personal lives, we routinely hand 100 percent of our income abilities to one company and hope they keep us around. The last few years have shown
