Jennifer Garner is one of the most loved stars because she seems like a person anyone could talk to. Her Instagram is full of positive posts about being a mom and making it through life.
The mother of Jennifer Garner is Patricia English Garner. Patricia grew up on a farm in Locust Grove, Oklahoma, when she was a little girl, and she has a lot of happy memories of that time.
She can even remember how her parents bought the land their family for many years. In 1936, her parents bought the land with a bonus her father got for serving in World War I.

The family only had $700 to buy the land at the time. She remembers that when her veteran father and mother bought the land, they didn’t even have a car. Someone had to be hired to drive them to the property.
“My parents didn’t even have a car, so when they heard that land was for sale, they hired someone to take them there. “The farm had a two-room house and 20 acres, minus one acre that was a Native American cemetery in the middle of the land,” Patricia said.
Mother told me about how Dad stood on his heels and talked all day about $20. When they finally agreed on the price, the deal was done, and the land was bought. Since then, it’s been in our family,” she said.
It didn’t even have running water or indoor plumbing, which is what you’d expect from a building from that time. Jennifer’s mother lived on that 20-acre property when she was a child.

As people grew up and moved away, the farm had more than one set of owners. As it was bought and sold, it continued going from one family member to the next. Then, in 2017, Jennifer Garner decided to buy the farm herself.
However, she didn’t buy the farm to keep it in the family. She also had plans to turn it back into a profitable business. To do this, she asked her uncle Robert and aunt Janet, who had owned the farm before, to help her.
The farm hadn’t been planted or cared for in 40 years. Her mother and her siblings used to be very interested in farming. They sold pecans and grew lettuce, radishes, and potatoes.
And Jennifer wanted to get back to that. With Ari Raz, John Foraker, and Cassandra Curtis, she started “Once Upon a Farm.” The plan was to grow organic fruits and vegetables that could be turned into healthy food for kids.

She said she had been thinking about the project for a long time. “Once upon a time,” she said, “we dreamed of bringing baby food back to its roots with organic fruits and vegetables grown by local farmers, blended with love, and served straight from the fridge.” We hoped that mealtimes would be less stressful because we could give our kids foods that give them all the nutrients they need and more.”
Jennifer says it’s important to her to ensure busy moms get healthy food.
The business was started in 2018 and has done very well since then. Some of the biggest stores in the U.S. carry their products, and you can also buy them on the company’s website.
Honestly, I think it’s so sweet that she bought the farm because she knew it was important to her family and turned it into a business that made money.
