FOUR FARMERS. FOUR CHANCES AT LOVE.

MEET THE FARMERS IN SEARCH OF TRUE LOVE IN AMERICA'S HEARTLAND ON THE NEW UNSCRIPTED DATING SERIES "FARMER WANTS A WIFE" PREMIERING WEDNESDAY, MARCH 8, ON FOX

Superstar Entertainer and Grammy Award Winner Jennifer Nettles Hosts the Series

Real love is back! Rounding up true romance, Farmer Wants a Wife brings big heart to the heartland in an all-new unscripted dating show hosted by Jennifer Nettles, which follows four hard-working farmers - Ryan Black, Allen Foster, Hunter Grayson and Landon Heaton - in search of real, lasting love. Each farmer hosts a group of single women who leave behind the comfort and convenience of city life for the charms and challenges of country living, as they embark on an adventure that could change the course of their lives forever. Farmer Wants a Wife premieres Wednesday, March 8 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

The pursuit of genuine love never looked like this as each farmer and their group of hopeful singles meet and mutually select one another before the women are invited to experience life on their respective farm. From there, the farmers show each group what it is really like on an actual working farm, from tending to the land, feeding cattle and baling hay, to the behind-the-scenes business operations. For the ladies, the reality of this way of living may beg the question: how far are you willing to go for love? Together, with the hope of finding their ever-after, they endeavor to discover the beauty, humor, trials and romance that come with finding the one.
