Fox’s hit dating show, Farmer Wants a Wife, hosted by Kimberly Williams-Paisley, is set to return for its third season on Thursday, March 20. The series, which boasts a remarkable international track record of 226 marriages and 565 children, follows four new farmers as they search for love among a group of city-dwelling hopefuls.

This season introduces viewers to four distinct farmers: Matt Warren, a California avocado farmer; Jay Woods, an Alabama farmer rebuilding his family’s legacy; John Sansone, a Missouri law student with farming aspirations; and Colton Hendricks, a divorced father and third-generation cattle rancher from Arkansas. Each farmer represents a unique background and personality, offering a wide array of potential matches.

The show features a large cast of women, ranging in age from 22 to 33, and hailing from across the United States. Professions vary widely, including nurses, hairstylists, a speech-language pathologist, and even a zoo employee. These daters will compete for the affections of the four farmers, tackling the challenges of farm life and the intricacies of building relationships in a unique and often demanding environment. Whether these city dwellers can adapt to a life of early mornings and agricultural labor is an open question, but Farmer Wants a Wife assures another season of heartfelt moments and rural romance.
