Someone who is in the position where they could do something much more significant, but still chooses an agricultural job for sentimental reasons. When done with badass fighters, it is often used to symbolize that after seeing so much destruction and violence, they want a chance to actually do something constructive, put down some roots, and see some new growth, maybe as a way of dealing with post traumatic stress. In brief, instead of destroying life, they now seek to raise and maintain it. It might overlap with Real Men Wear Pink, especially when it is about flowers, or gardening, to show that this tough man always secretly wished for such a non-violent, nurturing pastime. For others, the pastoral life is particularly sweet because they've lived their entire lives on the move and this is the first place they can really call home, or maybe this is what they have really been fighting for all along (soldiers Fighting for a Homeland, for example). It may turn out to be a harder job than they originally thought. When it is professional agriculture, like farming, it often happens with politically or socially important figures, to show that they wish to be mere workers of the land. They might make snarky comments informing us that in fact, this is the first really useful thing they've done. This sort of response is typical of the Cincinnatus, possibly an Ur-Example. There are practical reasons for this as well. Being a good soldier requires waking up early, being punctual, and working hard under a rigid structure. Being a good farmer requires waking up early, doing chores punctually, and working hard under a strict timetable for planting and harvesting. See also: Home Sweet Home, Refreshingly Normal Life-Choice and Retired Badass for retirement, and Arcadia for peaceful life. Compare with Swords to Plowshares, which involves weapons rather than people. The opposite of (and a play on) Call to Adventure. A subtrope of Big Town Boredom. |

In the Star Trek Online tie-in novel The Needs of the Many, Jake Sisko discovers Rene Picard, the son of Jean-Luc Picard and Beverly Crusher, had restarted his family's vineyard. This was, more or less, a moment of Taking a Third Option, as Rene had felt intimidated in trying to go into either Starfleet or medical school due to the legacy his parents left behind. | |

Subverted in Batman Ninja. Batman and Red Hood come across the Joker and Harley Quinn working as farmers, having been restored to sanity after losing their memories. Joker even talks of how working the land makes him feel like everything bad in him is escaping into the soil. Over Red Hood's objections, Batman decides to leave them be as the couple happily celebrate the sprouting of their first flower. Turns out the flower sprouting was the hypnotic trigger for their previous evil personalities to reawaken. Knowing that Batman would Never Hurt an Innocent, the Joker and Harley hypnotised themselves as a Memory Gambit. Even the plants they are growing are only used later to manufacture Knockout Gas. | |

The Chronicles of Prydain: Coll, a legendary hero who single-handedly entered Annuvin to rescue an oracular pig, retired to a farm called Caer Dallben to take care of that pig and work the farm. Which is exactly what Taran wanted to do at the end of the series, having finally grasped the value of farming... but as it turned out, fate had other plans. Adaon in The Black Cauldron says that "there is more honor in a field well plowed than in a field steeped in blood." |

The Belgariad: After centuries of being the protector to the Heir of the Rivan Throne, Polgara finally settles down with her husband in a simple cottage in a quiet vale where hardly anybody else lives. She cultivates her own vegetables, makes her own soap... and is probably the second richest person in the world as well as an all-powerful sorceress who can create things through the power of her own Will. The sorcerer Beldin too, though he doesn't become a farmer. After several millennia of spying on the enemy, he and his partner become (presumably immortal) hawks and fly off, never to be seen again. |

Fire Emblem: If you recruit General Wallace in the first official English release and keep him alive until the end, his epilogue with read that, after somehow winding up in Ilia, he spends the remainder of his days tilling the soil up there. Of course, he'd become a farmer after 30 years' worth of service as a knight to the Caelin house before he joins you, anyway, so it'd really be more correct to say that he went BACK to farming.... Defied in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. Ike's dying father advises him to take up farming instead of going after the Black Knight for revenge, but Ike disregards this Last Request. Fire Emblem: Three Houses: In Alois' Crimson Flower endings, he and his family retire to Remire Village and raise a farm there. Brom and Nephenee follow the example of Wallace, given that they were farmers before signing up to defend Crimea. |

Dragon Ball: In Dragon Ball: Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!!, Goku is seen tending to a radish farm. This is expanded on in the first episode of Dragon Ball Super, with Goku having become a farmer after his last bout of saving the world, in order to provide for his family. Later episodes establish that Goku is actually quite good at it and that his vegetables are very popular at the local farmer's market. However, while Goku himself doesn't mind farming and even gets some satisfaction out of it, he mainly does it to keep Chi-Chi from complaining and would actually like to train a bit more, often looking for ways to combine training and farming. According to Word of God, Tien Shinhan took up farming in addition to his martial arts training at the end of the series, and uses his Multi-Form and Four Witches techniques to aid in harvesting the crops. |

Ryoji Kaji in Neon Genesis Evangelion inverts this trope — rather than gardening and growing watermelons because of retirement, he does it because he's about to face the end of the world and wants to at least enjoy himself in his final moments. Later on he implies that this is what he would do if he had the chance to retire. He doesn't get the chance. | |

Discworld: Parodied in Interesting Times. One of Cohen's horde confronts him with the fact that one time he stole a farm and wanted to settle down. It lasted about three hours. Also parodied in Feet of Clay. Sergeant Colon's desire to "buy a farm" and raise chickens fades somewhat when he is (forcibly, brutally and messily) exposed to real livestock. In The Colour of Magic, the Talking Sword feels this. In Reaper Man, Death gets retired, and spends this time as a farmhand helping to bring in the harvest; after all, he is a dab hand with a scythe. After his retirement ends, he generates a cornfield in his domain in remembrance. The Discworld Companion says this in Vetinari's entry: |

One story arc in Final Fantasy XIV deals with this. In the starting quests for the coastal city of Limsa Lominsa, you deal with the former pirates who are having trouble transitioning from bloodthirsty killers to farmers, and the Starter Villain is one such pirate who didn't like this enough to debate going to the serpent reavers. Inverted in the most literal sense with the Reaper job. The first Reapers were once pureblood Garlean farmers who were driven from their homes by invaders, forcing them to tap into the Void to gain dark powers (pureblood Garleans cannot naturally manipulate aether), allowing them to fight back while using their scythes as weapons. |

After witnessing the death of several friends and killing his own successor as Warchief, Garrosh, Thrall lost faith in himself and his shamanic powers faded. He retired with his family to Nagrand to live as a simple farmer, but was forced to rejoin the Horde when Sylvanas sent assassins. | |

In his first appearance on Red Dwarf, the robot Kryten says he's always wanted to have his own garden. Lister encourages him to find a planet with an atmosphere and do it. The viewers assume this is where he's gone, until he reappears as a regular cast member in the next season. According to the Opening Scroll (which passes so fast it can only be read by freeze-frame), he's been found in pieces and reassembled after crashing his space-bike into an asteroid. Dave Lister's original plan for when he returned to Earth was to move Fiji and buy a cow and a sheep and raise horses. However, it is also apparent that he had no idea what this actually involved. |

With the help of some friendly rabbit-monsters and other creatures, he ends up getting pretty good at it, and the Dragon in charge of the tower even makes him a Farmer(as a Character Class). | |

In Quest for Glory I, you come across a centaur raking his field. In fact, that's all you ever see him do. But his description states that he looks very strong and has had his fair share of battles. If you attempt to fight him, the game simply won't let you, implying that it's not a good idea. | |

Band of Brothers: At the end of Episode 2 ("Day of Days"), Winters states in narration that he swore to himself that once the war ended, he would retire to a secluded farm and live the rest of his life in peace. This is ultimately what he ends up doing. It's also a case of Truth in Television. | |

One reason why Shadowdale in the Forgotten Realms has successfully weathered an awful lot of monster attacks, despite its small population and lack of heavy fortifications, is that several high-level player characters from Ed Greenwood's home D&D campaigns wrapped up their adventuring careers by heeding this trope and starting farms there. | |

In Magic: The Gathering, one of the most iconic white spells, "Swords to Plowshares", invokes this. It removes a creature from the game and gives its owner its power in life points. It is a reference to Isaiah 2:4 in The Bible. There's also the character Kamahl, who first entered the game as a red barbarian called "Kamahl, Pit Fighter"; some time later, he got another card, as the green forest druid "Kamahl, Fist of Krosa". Kamahl doesn't really fit the spirit of this trope, since he doesn't actually stop fighting. He just uses plants and animals to kick ass instead of using only his sword. Though this shift in attitude is played tragically straight in the block's story: After receiving the Mirari, Kamahl promptly lost his damn mind and went on a rampage, culminating in the death of his sister, Jeska, and ultimately causing her rebirth as Phage the Untouchable. Consumed with grief, he journeyed into the forest of Krosa to rid himself of the Mirari's influence through druidic magic. The "Fist of Krosa" card represents his return to battle. |

A complicated series of events later, he is crowned Emperor but chooses to only rule temporarily, until the realm is stabilized. His happy ending is returning to his now-safe hometown and planting crops with his wife Siluca, who prefers the steady pace of farm life to navigating political crises or awkward ceremonies. | |

In Dragon Ball: Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!!, Goku is seen tending to a radish farm. This is expanded on in the first episode of Dragon Ball Super, with Goku having become a farmer after his last bout of saving the world, in order to provide for his family. Later episodes establish that Goku is actually quite good at it and that his vegetables are very popular at the local farmer's market. However, while Goku himself doesn't mind farming and even gets some satisfaction out of it, he mainly does it to keep Chi-Chi from complaining and would actually like to train a bit more, often looking for ways to combine training and farming. | |

The Lord of the Rings: Sam ended the story like this. True, gardening was his profession to begin with, but after all the adventures they went through, his final settlement in the Shire definitely had this feel. Of course he later went on to become the Mayor of the Shire, but in Hobbit politics that probably doesn't necessarily rule out country work on the side. Éowyn and Faramir do this as well. Though they technically end up ruling the province of Ithilien, talk as if they're hearing the call to stop fighting take up gardening, and growing things instead of killing them. |

Star Trek Star Trek: The Next Generation: This is a theme at least three times for famous Starfleet captain Picard. After his horrific experience with the Borg, he visits his family vineyard on Earth during his recuperation; while there he briefly considers giving up his Starfleet career to lead the tantalizingly mysterious "Atlantis project", which seems to have something to do with creating or making livable new land on or from the ocean floor - not only growing new life, but creating the space to house life. He is later shown managing the same family vineyard as part of the alternate future in the Grand Finale. In Star Trek: Picard, we see that Picard has indeed retired from Starfleet to run his family farm by this time, albeit leaving Starfleet on much more tragic terms. In Star Trek: Generations, in the Nexus, Kirk was found chopping wood and frying eggs on a farm. This was a memory of his, right before he chose to return to Starfleet. Several of the former members of Kira's Resistance cell in Deep Space Nine are shown as farmers, seemingly for the reasons described in the trope descriptions. |

Horus Heresy: Primarch Vulkan dreams of retiring to Nocturne as a farmer after the Great Crusade is over. Curze, a fellow Primarch but significantly more unhinged, mocks him for this heavily. During his short-lived retirement, Luna Wolf Gavriel Loken takes to tending to a garden left behind by some Sister of Silence. He notes that for someone as used to wrecking havoc as he is, there's a great wonder in creating rather than destroying. Oll Parsson, after spending several dozen lifetimes as a soldier, retires to Calth and becomes a farmer until Calth comes under attack and forces him to return to his soldiering roots to escape. While stranded on the idyllic agri-world of Sotha, Primarch Guilliman briefly fantasizes about just staying there forever, tending to the crops in peace far from the civil war ravaging the rest of the galaxy. |

At the conclusion of the crisis, Superman returns to the peaceful profession of his (adoptive) parents, the Kents, just like Bruce Wayne, who becomes a full-time doctor like his father Thomas Wayne. Also a more tragic example from the same book. Magog wanders the irradiated wastes of Kansas, trying his hardest to forge a farm in a reflection of Superman at the start of the comic. It doesn't work. |

Xenoblade Chronicles 3: This is Colony 9's subplot after the heroes liberate it. Fed up with a life of meaningless warfare (and as a precaution against more food shortages), the commander decides to turn the colony's resources towards growing crops. Most of the sidequests found in the area deal with the results of this decision, such as dealing with subordinates who disapprove of the idea or helping the commander consult with other colonies who know more about how to farm properly. Notably, given that the concept of agriculture had been largely lost to the majority of the colonies, the party and commander encounter several pitfalls with their attempts to transition to it, such as blights, droughts, foraging monsters, and their first successful crops not being of an edible plant to begin with. | |

When you're not exploring new lands, fighting off monsters, or building structures in Minecraft, you're probably farming resources. It's not hard to see why, either — farming is very low-risk, not very resource-intensive, gives you food to keep you going, and if you know the right villagers to trade with, can prove very profitable. | |

Doctor Who In "Remembrance of the Daleks", after encountering the Doctor and the Daleks, Dr. Rachel Jensen quips in frustration, "You know, after this is over, I'm going to retire and raise begonias." In the Big Finish Doctor Who play "The Sky Man", The Master lands on a peaceful arcadian planet and, while his companion Cole Jarnish does his own thing, decides to take up viticulture, claiming the patience and subtly required appeals to him. Rather than retiring from his evil ways however, it's just foreshadowing that The Master is waiting patiently until his Evil Plan bears fruit due to Cole's unwitting efforts. |

This is what the Meyerists of upstate New York are doing in The Path. The community was originally founder Stephen Meyer's family farm which the founding members expanded on and built a series of communal homes. Members are shown working in a series of gardens and hothouses, raising vegetables and flowers which are given away for free in the city. Early episodes have the Armstrong family speculating that the heavenly Garden of Meyer's ultimate vision will arise from this place, and prospective leader Eddie Lane has a vision confirming that. | |

Hell, the whole Rune Factory franchise might count, being a spinoff of its sister-series, Harvest Moon. Both the protagonists and their neighbors across all games dabble in the battlefield as much as they do in the sowing field, with varying degrees of success. | |

After being taken as a prisoner by the Rebellion in She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, Shadow Weaver went to grow a garden on Castle Bright Moon. This was the result of the showrunners discussing the funniest possible hobby an Evil Sorcerer like her could pick up in that situation. Subverted: the plants are actually components to magic rituals (but they're for self-care routines)- except for daisies, she just finds them cheerful. | |

Firefly: Brand New 'Verse has Simon and Kaylee running a farm. Simon is a brilliant trauma surgeon, but he lost his chance to practice pretty much anyplace when he broke River out of the Academy. He could have probably made it as a doctor on one of the less controlled border worlds, though. And Kaylee is a skilled mechanic in her own right. They both liked being on Serenity's crew, but probably decided settling somewhere would be better and less dangerous since they have kids by this story. | |

During the battle with The Empire, he briefly wonders what he'll do after the battle is over, and decides that after what he's achieved throughout the story, a simple life as a farmer would no longer satisfy him. |

Invoked by Pacifist star nations with the "Agrarian Idyll" civic in Stellaris. As of 2.2 "Le Guin", it represents a futuristic star nation that has managed to avoid large-scale urbanisation; it gives a bonus to housing for generator, mining and farm districts, and farmer pops also produce amenities. Rolling in one housing, entertainment and employment for pops can allow for powerful, non-specialised planets with very high raw resource generation and population growth. | |

Played straight in the Bazil Broketail series. The final novel ends with the main character Relkin and his dragon Bazil retiring to a life of farming after their term of military service is up — ironically the very life they joined the military to avoid. Several of his buddies in his old unit are also approaching retirement age and thinking of starting up their own farms next to Relkin's, starting a new town in the process. | |

In Harvest Moon this trope appears in most every game. Justified, since its a farming game. Most games have your Father die, with you taking his place. One notable time where this 'didn't' happen was Story of Seasons (2014), where the Player Character, having been raised in a mostly Urban area, always wanted to be a farmer, so upon seeing an ad for working on a farm in the rural boondocks, you sprung at the chance. | |

Star Wars Legends: I, Jedi: Main character Corran Horn's step-grandfather Rostek became a rather well-known horticulturist after retiring from CorSec, secreting the works of Persecuted Intellectuals and other banned information in his plants' genetic codes. He relates how one time, an Imperial Jedi-hunter asked for some flowers, and he gave the man a bunch of plants containing all kinds of information on Jedi as a private joke. In The Hand of Thrawn, it is revealed that Baron Fel was chosen to be the template for clones specifically to invoke this trope, so they would fight to defend their homes. It worked TOO well: the Devists decided that their loyalty to their land and families outweighed their loyalty to the Empire. The novel The Old Republic: Deceived ends with the Republic-soldier-turned-spice-runner Zeerid Korr buying a farm and settling down with his daughter. He is then joined by Aryn Leneer, a Jedi Knight who has quit the order and has come to be with him. Also averted with the Jedi Agricorps. Consisting mostly of Jedi who couldn't make it out of the Academy and those who did but were not chosen as apprentices, it was often ridiculed as the lowest rung of the Order. |

Aubrey-Maturin: Jack Aubrey opens The Mauritius Command stuck in a tiny cottage, the great garden he dreamed of in previous books filled with puny wormy cabbages. As he's used to ship's food, the worms don't bother him so much. In general, Aubrey is a subversion of this trope: though he periodically makes plans for estates or agricultural projects, they're ill-fated, and he always goes back to sea (and to war) with relief. | |

In Blade & Soul, the player character briefly considers throwing away their game-long goal to get rid of Jinsoyun at one point to become a farmer because it would be a simpler, less stressful life than being a martial artist. In the end, however, they decided that taking down Jinsoyun must be done and if they don't do it, no one else will. The player character can also help the villagers in Windrest, where they can fish, grow wheat and raise pigs for their students in exchange for upgrade materials. | |

The section of the prologue showing this focuses on a radar reader for the country's coast guard who has started having bad dreams and decides to quit to become a sheep herder. In the story's main timeframe, his great-grandson ends up a stowaway to a military crew exploring what has become a Forbidden Zone and his original job as a sheep herder contributes to emphasize just how out of place he is. | |

However, they hardly had any other choice, since they were the only living human beings on the planet and they needed to grow their own stuff to survive. After returning to the past, winning the Angel War and averting the Apocalypse they become owners of a garden-market, this time for choice (seen in greater detail in the sequel). |

One of the verses to "Seven Nation Army" from Elephant by The White Stripes involves the disillusioned protagonist thinking he should do this. | |

Star Trek: The Next Generation: This is a theme at least three times for famous Starfleet captain Picard. After his horrific experience with the Borg, he visits his family vineyard on Earth during his recuperation; while there he briefly considers giving up his Starfleet career to lead the tantalizingly mysterious "Atlantis project", which seems to have something to do with creating or making livable new land on or from the ocean floor - not only growing new life, but creating the space to house life. He is later shown managing the same family vineyard as part of the alternate future in the Grand Finale. In Star Trek: Picard, we see that Picard has indeed retired from Starfleet to run his family farm by this time, albeit leaving Starfleet on much more tragic terms. | |
