Farmer Wants a Wife 2024: meet the cast

Host Samantha Armytage and co-host Natalie Gruzlewski return for a new season of bush romance, Farmer Wants a Wife on Seven.

Farmer Wants A Wife is produced by Eureka Productions for the Seven Network.

Farmer Bert

30 | Pineapple and dragon fruit farmer | Wamuran, Queensland

This fourth-generation pineapple and dragon fruit farmer is impeccably mannered, selfless and honest, with a heart of gold. Bert has worked hard to take over the family farm and runs it on his own. He now wants someone with whom to share it. His ideal partner is funny, outgoing, adventurous, understands the long hours of his work, can banter and gets along with everyone, especially his nanna, whose disapproval could be a dealbreaker.

Farmer Joe

After living and working around the world, Joe’s family’s cattle and sheep farm is where his heart is. It’s his dream to bring the farm back to its full potential. Joe is a passionate rugby player and loves horses, fishing and travel. A bit of a social butterfly, his charming smile and playful, cheeky personality are infectious. Family is everything to Joe; he will cancel personal plans to make time for them, which is one of the qualities he’s looking for in his future wife. He is extremely close to his mother, who he cared for during her breast cancer battle three years ago.

Travelling, working with horses and breaking them in, footy, fishing, fourwheel driving and wild camping.
