In January 2022, Anastasia Ganias-Gellin, founder of Fancy Peasant, appeared on the cover of New York Family — a moment that beautifully captured the heart of the brand and the woman behind it.
Shot in a bright, lived-in kitchen, the cover tells a story of tradition, nourishment, and modern motherhood. Surrounded by fresh herbs, seasonal vegetables, and a bottle of Fancy Peasant olive oil, Anastasia embodies the belief that food is more than sustenance — it’s culture, connection, and care.
From Heritage to Home
The feature highlights Anastasia’s Greek roots and the central role food has always played in her life. Fancy Peasant was born from family traditions, generational wisdom, and the idea that everyday cooking can be both sensual and deeply nourishing. The kitchen — where the brand began — remains the soul of everything Fancy Peasant creates.
Building a Business While Raising a Family
The story also explores Anastasia’s experience building Fancy Peasant while raising her children. It’s a portrait of balance over perfection, and a reminder that motherhood and entrepreneurship can grow side by side. At its core, the feature emphasizes the importance of being kind to yourself while building something meaningful.
A Moment That Captures the Brand
Being featured on the cover wasn’t just a milestone — it was a visual reflection of Fancy Peasant’s philosophy: honoring where you come from, feeding the people you love, and creating beauty through intention.
