Carrie Underwood Could Live Off-Grid on Her Tennessee Farm
American Idol winner Carrie Underwood has a large farm in Tennessee that she and her family could live off of if they chose to live off grid.
"I think if I had to, I could be self-sustained at home," Underwood, 43, told Fox News Digital. "I love growing things. If I had all the time in the world, I would… not really need to go to the grocery store for too much. But it's a lot of fun. You know, I love our chickens. We have cows, we have sheep, we have donkeys. We have horses. I have my garden, and it's a great way to connect with the earth. That's my contribution to the family."
"I feel like a lot of other responsibilities are mine," Underwood continued. "We have a farm manager who is wonderful… He's taking care of my sheep while I'm gone. He looks after the horses and things like that. We do as much as we can, but I'm obviously not there all the time, and neither is my husband, so we do have help."
Underwood along with her husband, Mike Fisher, and their two sons spend most of their time in Tennessee as a family. The "Before He Cheats" singer often shares updates from the farm on social media, whether it's welcoming a new baby goat or growing impressive crops.
While Underwood hasn't mentioned any plans to step away from the spotlight, she did make it clear that her priority in life is her family.
"I hope, more than anything, that's what they take away from me and that's what they remember about me. Like she was mom, and every once in a while she goes and gets on stage," she told Fox News Digital.
Underwood is a judge on American Idol Season 24, which premiered in January. The finale is set to air on Monday, May 11.
