Having grown up on a farm, the songstress has developed a green thumb in recent years. She considers her garden one of her “happy places,” as it gives her time to think and reflect.
Over the years, Carrie Underwood has shared glimpses of her garden on her expansive property. Embracing organic living, she has also added a greenhouse, further expanding her homegrown efforts.
In 2011, the then-newlyweds purchased 400 acres in Franklin, Tennessee for $3 million. They envisioned a private retreat surrounded by nature, designing a custom estate that included horse stables, a scenic lake, and rolling hills.
The following year, the couple shared a glimpse of the then-empty land during an appearance on “Oprah’s Next Chapter,” offering a preview of what would soon become their dream home.
While driving across the estate, Fisher pointed out a scenic ridge, describing it as a vantage point that “sees everything.” He also noted the addition of an orchard that had been planted on the other side of the property.
The couple highlighted a designated picnic area situated on an elevated spot, with Fisher describing it as a location with a “nice high spot” and a refreshing breeze, where they planned to add more trees.
Their connection to the land encompassed more than scenic views and carefully planned spaces. In July 2022, Underwood shared a video on Instagram, showcasing the abundance of fruits and vegetables grown in her garden.
“My garden is one of my happy places…when I’m getting my hands dirty it’s my time for thought and reflection,” she expressed, adding, “Enjoy a little taste of calm…from my #Garden to yours.”
Carrie Underwood and Fisher have built a life rooted in family, faith, and self-sufficiency, turning their 400-acre property into a thriving homestead. Despite challenges, including miscarriages and a serious fall, they remain committed to their vision, raising their two sons while embracing country living.
