Recently, Brad Pitt, who raises six children with wife Angelina Jolie, got his whole family involved in building an irrigation system and organic vegetable patch at their home. According to him, it'll help his kids grow "strong and emotionally sound individuals who aren't caught up in the crazy, vain world he and Angie live in".
After his purchase of a French winery in 2012, Pitt was quoted as saying: "I'm a farmer now. I love learning about the land and which field is most suitable for which grape, the drama of September and October... I enjoy cleaning the forest and walking the land. (It is) the antithesis of the drive, the want, the need to get ahead indicative of life in Hollywood". And not only him, actors like Jake Gyllenhaal, Nicole Kidman and Julia Robers too have joined the league promoting healthy lifestyle. Listed here are a few of our favourite stars who've got green thumbs...
Sienna Miller
American-born British actress Sienna Miller maybe making more headlines for her hook-ups and breakups, but one would be surprised to know she still takes time out to pursue her love for gardening. Sienna loves to grow her own supply of vegetables and fruits at her home garden in London. According to her friends, the actress takes her hobby quite seriously and even worries about her plants when she is away shooting.
Julia Roberts
This pretty woman has always believed in modest living and also shares a love for organic farming. The actress has got a garden built at her Malibu mansion so that she can help her children lead a healthy lifestyle. She wants them to learn where the food comes from and how it is consumed. Reportedly, she makes sure her land gets back all the nutrients from leftover composts and kitchen wastes. Now, that's what you call being one with nature.
Gwyneth Paltrow
The Country Song star was once heard saying, "My dream is to have land somewhere outside of Nashville and have a big organic farm outside of the city". Gwyneth is known to follow unusual diet regimes. But then, she practises what she preaches. As an actress, singer and food writer, she has been regularly talking about eco-friendliness — providing information about organic gardening and food choices on her own website.
Jake Gyllenhaal
The actor may not have received an Oscar nomination for Nightcrawler this year. So what? Here's another reason we love him for. Jake loves gardening and prefers eating a healthy diet with veggies picked fresh from his own garden. The actor was much praised for promoting the Edible Schoolyard Project, a programme that teaches the American school kids how to grow and cook their own food, so as to prevent obesity.
Oprah Winfrey
The media mogul grew up on a tiny farm in Kosciusko, Mississippi, which her grandmother and she tended. And now, Oprah has got back to her roots — harvesting produce from the farm on her 780-acre property in Maui, Hawaii. She feels that having space for a farm is a "full-circle moment" for her. The produce grown on her land is donated locally.
Elizabeth Hurley
She's not just all about green eyes and an enviable body. As a model and businesswoman, Elizabeth Hurley is one of the most successful organic farmers, who has been selling meat and vegetables at local markets for years now. She has a 400-acre organic farm in Gloucester, where she grows all the necessary ingredients for her line of natural snack bars. No wonder, she leaves us charmed with her multi-faceted personality.
Nicole Kidman
This gorgeous Australian beauty and her musician husband Keith Urban often divide their time between a 36-acre farm outside Nashville, where they are based, and a 100-acre cattle ranch in Australia. Like her mother and sister, Nicole, too is an avid gardener and grows organic vegetables at home. The actress spends hours tending to her vegetables so that she can treat her family to home-grown produce.
