Get Ready for the Farmer Wants a Wife Season 3 Premiere

Are you ready for another season of Farmer Wants a Wife? Because we are. Season three of the reality dating show premieres Thursday, March 20 at 9 p.m. on Fox, and will be available to stream the next day on Hulu. This season will follow a new group of four farmers — Colton Hendricks, John Sansone, Matt Warren and Jay Woods — on their journeys to find love by welcoming five women back home to their farms. Colton is a 28-year-old cattle rancher in Mena, Arkansas. He is the dad of a 2-year-old son and dreams of having a "football team-sized family." John, 25, is a soy, corn and wheat farmer in St. Louis, Missouri. In addition to farming, he is also studying for a law degree. Matt is a 30-year-old avocado and fruit farmer in Morro Bay, California. He is a first-generation farmer. Jay, 25, farms hay and cattle in Florence, Alabama. Jay played college football at Michigan and Duke.  Members of our Lancaster Farming news team are ready to share thoughts and commentary on each episode. To get ready for the new season, we've dug into the four farmers to give our initial reactions and expectations for season three. This week on the Farmer Wants a Wife Afterparty, we're talking about Colton's desire for a "football team-sized family," John's lawyer ambitions, Jay's football career and our excitement for Matt's avocado farm. Plus, we have a hot take on the farmers' ages and discuss our dream farm industries to feature on future seasons.
