Acclaimed actress Jennifer Garner, known for “Alias” and “13 Going on 30,” has a unique connection to her family’s past, brought to life through the farm her grandparents purchased in 1936 in Locust Grove, Oklahoma.
Bought for $700 during the Great Depression, the initially bare 20-acre plot included a two-bedroom farmhouse without running water or electricity. Garner bought the family farm in 2017, aiming to preserve her family’s legacy and contribute her touch.
Transformed into an organic farm supplying her children’s food range, “Once Upon A Farm,” Garner views gardening as a connection to the earth.
Balancing her acting career, Garner finds joy in the rhythm of farm life. The farm is now cared for by her uncle Robert and his wife Janet.
They cultivate organic produce and narrate tales about the land, preserving the family’s legacy. Garner’s rejuvenation of her family’s farm stands as a manifestation of her passion for gardening, sustainable living, and a tribute to her family’s history, showcasing her dedication to a wholesome lifestyle.
