That's right, y'all. Fox's hit reality show, Farmer Wants a Wife is back for a third season with a whole new crop of farmers.
The dating show will follow four farmers from all around the country who are looking for love. Each bachelor will bring home a small group of women to their respective farms to see if they can handle the realities of farm life and fall in love while they're at it. The new season is set to air on March 20 with Kimberly Williams-Paisley taking the reins as the new host. Country singer Jennifer Nettles hosted the previous two seasons.
Country Living got the opportunity to meet this season's bachelors and let me just tell y'all, you're in for a treat.
Now, let's meet our farmers.
Matt Warren
Age: 30
Occupation: 1st Generation Avocado and Exotic Fruit Farmer
Farm & Location: 132-acre Avocado and Exotic Fruit Farm in Morro Bay, CA and another 70-acre farm in Visalia, CA
Matt's been a little bit of everywhere but now calls Morro Bay, CA his home. He may seem like a natural on the ranch, but farm life is pretty new to him. After his sister-in-law’s parents tragically passed away, he traded in his house-flipping hammer for a harvesting hoe in order to help. Matt's been deeply invested in the agriculture industry and has worked alongside his brother and sister-in-law ever since. While he enjoys the loving nickname “Uncle Matt” from his nine nieces and nephews, he’s more than ready for his own little one to call him “Dad.” Matt is looking for someone active and family-oriented who can keep up with the fun of the fruit farming lifestyle.
Jay Woods
Age: 25
Occupation: Hay and Cattle Farmer
Farm & Location: 515-acre Hay & Cattle Farm in Florence, AL
Despite not being initially perceived as a typical “cowboy,” Jay grew up in Alabama's countryside on his grandfather’s horse farm surrounded by family. He's always loved farming, hunting, kayaking, fishing, and anything else that kept him outdoors surrounded by animals. When Jay’s original dream of becoming a pro athlete while playing football at Duke got turned around due to an injury, he began to reflect on the times in his life that made him the happiest to determine his next steps. Choosing to return to his roots was easy, and he’s never looked back. While Jay felt pressure playing college football, it's nothing compared to the massive pressure his mom's been putting on him lately to settle down with a wife and some grandbabies! Jay’s looking for a kind-hearted, refined, confident woman who isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty on the farm! He also told County Living he's got a bit of a nerdy side and has always enjoyed reading and doing crossword puzzles.
John Sansone
Age: 25
Occupation: Soy, Corn and Wheat Farmer
Farm & Location: 170-acre Soy, Corn, and Wheat Farm in St. Louis, MO
John is among one of six siblings who spent his childhood learning everything he could about farm life from his grandfather. To this day, he feels incredibly lucky to be in the presence of such an incredible farmer on his great grandfather's land and dreams of making his family even prouder by finding a partner to add to the bunch. While he spends much of his time working on the farm, he's also got to prioritize studying for his law degree. He loves going on woodland drives with his grandfather, daytime fishing, and nighttime frog gigging. Can he find a girl who is willing to do the same? John is eager to find his life partner so he can continue the farming legacy and his grandfather can bear witness to the next, most important chapter of his life.
Colton Hendricks
Age: 28
Occupation: Cattle Rancher & Horse Trainer
Farm & Location: 600-acre Cattle Farm in Mena, AR
For Colton, family is his top priority. The 28-year-old dad has a two-year-old son and is looking for the right woman to join their tight-knit family. He grew up on a farm, working alongside his dad, which instilled his value for hard work. Love, family, and ranching are what's most important to Colton. He knows exactly what he wants, but has had a tough time meeting someone who is ready to be a mom. With his whole family close by and gorgeous property to raise his dream football-team-sized family, Colton is looking forward to meeting a partner who knows what they're signing up for.
The third season will dive deeper into the beauty and trials of homegrown love. And only time will tell if the men's pick of women will have the patience, spirit, and adaptability required to be a farmer’s wife. Until March 20th rolls around, you can catch up on previous seasons of Farmer Wants a Wife on Hulu, Fox.com, or Tubi.
