In Loving Memory
Ben Honeycutt
January 10, 2003 — July 30, 2025
The boy who inspired a movement.
A Journey That Inspired a Movement
Ben Honeycutt's life and health journey became the profound inspiration behind Moms Across America. When Ben faced significant health challenges early in life — including life-threatening food allergies — his mother, Zen Honeycutt, began tirelessly advocating for his wellness. What started as one mother's determination to heal her son became a national movement.
Ben was the original reason Zen discovered the connection between GMOs, glyphosate, and children's health. His 22 food allergies were reduced to 3 after the family went organic. His recovery was the proof of concept that launched everything — every petition, every test, every march, every family that found hope through MAA.
Through the determination of Zen and the powerful inspiration of Ben's story, Moms Across America has touched millions of lives, helping families navigate their own health challenges with hope and resilience.
Ensuring the Legacy Continues
Many have asked about the circumstances surrounding Ben's passing. Zen Honeycutt, believing in full transparency and the importance of truth, has openly shared that Ben tragically left us due to suicide. Yet, his story is not defined solely by this loss — it is one of extraordinary purpose, courage, and the unyielding love of a mother determined to ensure her son's life makes an everlasting difference.
Ben's journey fuels our unwavering commitment to making the world a healthier place for every child. Because of Ben's inspiration, Moms Across America has:
- Empowered families with critical health information and resources across all 50 states
- Driven changes in communities nationwide, advocating for safer, healthier environments for children
- Provided hope and real solutions to countless families inspired by Ben’s courage and Zen’s determination
