7 Celebrities Who Are (Or Were) Actually Farmers
It is amazing how many famous celebrities grew up on a farm and how many still consider a farm or ranch to be the ideal place to live.

Jennie spent her childhood on a 25-acre horse farm in Illinois and now lives on a ranch in Los Olivos, California, with her three daughters and their cats, dogs, horses, pigs and goats.

5Matthew Fox
A young Matthew Fox and his family were caretakers of a remote Wyoming and then purchased a ranch in Crowheart on the Wind River Indian Reservation. Matthew still calls that tiny community of ranching families home. He loves the glacial lakes, mountains and rugged foothills where he learned horseback riding early on and took long trips with his father and brothers.
