FAFO story of the day: Carrie Underwood can't find hired hands to help her with the ranch. [View all]

Carrie Underwood Struggling With Leading a ‘Far From Idyllic’ Life on Tennessee Farm: Source

Owning a farm was a no-brainer for Carrie Underwood, who grew up on one in Checotah, Okla. A self-described green thumb, the country star, 42, lives on 400 acres with her husband, former NHL player Mike Fisher, and their two young sons in Tennessee.

But a source tells Star the constant grind of farm life is beginning to wear on the “Before He Cheats” singer.

“It’s become too much for her to maintain, and she’s getting no sleep because she’s up at the crack of dawn taking care of all these animals,” says the insider of the chickens, horses and sheep on the property, which also includes fruit trees, a greenhouse and multiple gardens.

“She’s shoveling hay, weeding, fertilizing, harvesting, and then there are the repairs that never end.” It doesn’t help that she’s had a hard time finding and keeping hired hands, says the insider.
