Overview
- Carrie Underwood, speaking Monday after American Idol’s Taylor Swift night, called her farm routine the “polar opposite” of show life and said she often comes home “covered in dirt” and “covered in poop.”
- She said she aims to do the work herself and believes she could live largely off the land if she had the time to grow and make more at home.
- Her 400-acre Tennessee property features chickens, cows, sheep, donkeys, horses, and a vegetable garden that she uses to feed her family.
- Her Instagram has tracked the shift to farm life, including March posts about adopting two orphan lambs named Magnolia (Maggie) and Murray.
- She continues on ABC’s American Idol with the next episode on May 4 and a May 11 season finale, and she has stepped back from touring to focus on home and family.
