Milkshake Singer Kelis Switches Her Mansion Out For A Farm & Sustainable Living

Kelis is back in the headline again and it’s once again for greatness. The bomb wife, singer, and chef has opted to sale her mansion for a farm and more sustainable lifestyle. This mom of two and cookbook author tells Agriculture Digest now that she has her sons, she wants to be mindful of what she feeds her family.

Her method for healthier diets and an eco-friendly lifestyle is to “grow everything and sustain everything that way,” she says.

I find it pretty remarkable how celebrities and others are getting back to our “roots” As a culture, our connection to the earth was painful memory. Whether is mainstream or not, I am for it. I honestly feel that after you start gardening- you’ll grow to love it (pun definitely intended). Healthier meals and sustainability needs the spotlight. What do you think about celebrities spreading light on farming and sustainable living?
