You could be a contestant to date a farmer on this Canadian reality show

Jun 27 2023, 3:59 pm

Another season of a reality show aimed at helping some BC farmers find true love is underway, and you could soon be a contestant vying to be taken home on their tractor.

Hosted by comedian Sabrina Jalees, Farming for Love is based on the long-running hit show seen all around the world called The Farmer Wants a Wife. 

The inaugural Canadian version followed five farmers from BC who have invited prospective daters to live and work on their farm until “The One” remains. This successful format has resulted in 197 weddings and 480 children to date… could this show add more to its impressive tally?

The casting for its second season is currently underway and will feature six farmers from BC, four men and two women.

The show is on the hunt for contestants looking to two-step their way into the hearts and lives of the farmers, and if you are game for that, check out each contestant’s profile below.
