Celebrity Carrie Underwood has always embraced her roots—literally and figuratively. Raised on a farm, the country music superstar has developed a love for gardening and sustainable living in recent years. She often refers to her garden as one of her “happy places,” a space where she finds peace, purpose, and time to reflect.
Over time, she has offered fans a peek into her flourishing homestead, nestled in the scenic countryside of Franklin, Tennessee. After marrying former NHL player Mike Fisher in 2010, the couple envisioned a serene retreat where they could raise a family and reconnect with nature. In 2011, they purchased 400 acres of land and began building their dream estate—complete with horse stables, a scenic lake, orchards, and rolling hills.During a segment on Oprah’s Next Chapter, the couple gave viewers a glimpse of the property in its early stages. Fisher highlighted future plans, including an orchard and a picnic area with panoramic views and fresh breezes.
Their deep connection to the land is reflected in the lifestyle they’ve cultivated. Underwood, an advocate for organic living, has expanded her garden into a self-sustaining operation. She now cares for chickens, grows a variety of produce, and tends to fruit trees including apples, peaches, blueberries, and blackberries.In 2023, she added a custom greenhouse to her property, created by California-based Epic Gardening. The space features herb beds, citrus trees, and a dedicated potting area. Just outside, raised beds flourish with vegetables, and a chicken coop provides a steady supply of eggs.
Their property has grown into a haven for animals as well. In 2020, Fisher surprised Underwood with two cows—charmingly named Brownie and Oreo by their son, Isaiah. The family also keeps bees, adding honey to their list of homegrown goods.
