Tech saying "I'll become farmer" to escape tech is very amusing, especially how data-driven the large scale farming is, and how small scale farming is getting priced out by large scale farming.
I'm not a farmer, but I did some tech for farming and you would be surprised how tech driven it is. Agriculture was probably the first industry that used satellites outside of military on the large scale.
If someone is Silicon Valley web app developer and went farming, they actually could be going deeper into tech than escape it.

I think most people expressing this sentiment are referring to small scale homesteads or hobby farms, which I have found to be a great break from desk time.
