Farmer Dustin is on the search for love that lasts forever in the brand-new season of Farmer Wants A Wife, coming to Channel Seven and 7plus after Easter.
The 26-year-old is a third-generation farmer from Condobolin in New South Wales. Despite his warm personality and genuine intentions, the show’s most remote farmer reveals that the dating scene in his hometown of Condobolin is nothing short of “dismal.”
“It’s like trying to find a needle in the haystack,” he said.
Dustin shares his challenges in finding a lasting connection: “Everything’s going good until they say, ‘Oh, so where are you from?'”
Will Dustin’s love be enough for someone to overcome the geographical barriers?
Hosted by Samantha Armytage and co-host Natalie Gruzlewski, Farmer Wants A Wife is set to captivate the audiences with its unique blend of romance, authenticity and country charm.
This year’s farmers include:
• Farmer Bert, 30 – Wamuran, QLD
• Farmer Joe, 33 – Bombala, NSW
• Farmer Dustin, 26 – Condobolin, NSW
• Farmer Dean, 25 – Kandanga, QLD
• Farmer Tom, 22 – Tabilk, VIC
