SCHOOL.

BUT YOU HAVE.
YOU MADE BREAD.
>> WHAT’S GOING ON WITH THESE
CINNAMON ROLLS.

I MAKE TRADITIONAL CINNAMON
ROLES FOR BIRTHDAYS.
NOW THEY ASK FOR HOMEMADE
BAGELS.
STAYED UP LATE GETTING THEM
READY.
I AM GOING TO BOIL THEM AFTER I
SAY GOOD-BYE, WE’LL HAVE FRESH
BAGELS TODAY.
>> BOILING BAGELS FOR YOUR
CHILDREN.

>> I DON’T KNOW, YOU CAN BOIL A
BAGEL.
>> YOU KNOW WHAT --
>> I HAVE A PRETEND COOKING SHOW
GOING UP TODAY BECAUSE TODAY IS
EXCITING.
ONCE UPON A FARM IS LAUNCHING.
MY GRANDMOTHER’S FAVORITE
RECIPE, SWEET POTATO FARMER JEN
PUDDING WITH SWEET POTATOES
GROWN ON MY FAMILY FARM.
WE MADE OUR TRADITIONAL SWEET
POTATO PUDDING TOGETHER TO
SHARE.
>> SO YOU HAVE TO TELL US ABOUT
THIS.
I FEEL LIKE THIS IS WHAT OUR
KIDS NEED TO BE EATING.
>> I HEARD THE WORD PUDDING,
THEN SWEET POTATO.
SO TELL US.
>> WELL, I MEAN, I CAN’T EVEN
BELIEVE BECAUSE MY GRANDMOTHER
PUT TWO CUPS OF SUGAR IN HERS.
SHE’S FROM TEXAS, YOU KNOW WHAT
I’M TALKING ABOUT, JENNA.
THIS IS NO SUGAR ADDED, ALL
ORGANIC, GROWN IN OKLAHOMA, NOT
ALL OF IT.
MY FAMILY FARM IS TINY.
WE CONTRIBUTE.
MY UNCLE ROBERT WENT FROM A 40
YEAR CAREER AS PLUMBER, HE AND
AUNT JANET ARE GROWING SWEET
POTATOES.
THERE HE IS.
AND I GOT TO HELP HARVEST AND
HELP PLANT.
I’M SO PROUD OF THAT FARM, PROUD
OF MY UNCLE.
SO PROUD ESPECIALLY BECAUSE
AFTER YEARS OF WORKING ON IT, WE
ARE FINALLY PARTNERING
OFFICIALLY WITH SAVE THE
CHILDREN.
SO PROCEEDS FROM EVERYTHING WE
SELL HERE, IT IS GOING TO BECOME
A BIGGER AND BIGGER PARTNERSHIP
ARE GOING TO FEEDING AND
EDUCATING KIDS IN RURAL AMERICA.
JUST LIKE MY GRANDMA’S RECIPE ON
THE FARM.
I AM FULL OF ALL THE FEELS.
MY DAUGHTER’S BIRTHDAY.
IT IS MORE THAN I CAN HANDLE.
>> DON’T LEAVE.
WE’RE TAKING A QUICK BREAK,
GOING TO COME BACK, WANT TO TALK
>>> WE ARE BACK WITH ACTRESS,
MOM OF THREE JENNIFER GARNER.
JENNIFER, WE LIKE, WE LOVE YOUR
INSTA PAGE.
ONE HAIRCUT IN PARTICULAR THAT
CAPTURED OUR ATTENTION.
WE’VE ALL BEEN THERE AT ONE
POINT IN OUR LIVES.
HERE’S YOURS.
WHO GAVE YOU THAT BABY?
>> GOSH, HER NAME WAS SANDY.
WENT TO HER MY ENTIRE CHILDHOOD.
THAT WAS AN $8 HAIRCUT.
THE OVERALLS MY MOM MADE.
I WOULD ONLY WEAR OVERALLS FOR
YEARS AND YEARS.
THEY WERE HAND ME DOWNS FROM MY
BIG SISTER.
>> WE LOVE THAT.
WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THIS NEW
PRODUCT.
WE WONDER HOW DO YOU
INCORPORATE, YOU WERE BORN IN
TEXAS, THEN MOVED TO WEST
VIRGINIA, YOU HAVE THIS FARM IN
OKLAHOMA.
HOW DO YOU INCORPORATE ALL OF
THAT THAT YOU GREW UP WITH AND
THE WAY YOU PARENT?
>> I MEAN, I DEFINITELY AM THE
DAUGHTER OF A FARMER AND I’M THE
DAUGHTER, MY SISTERS AND I FEEL
ALMOST LIKE OUR PARENTS WERE
IMMIGRANTS.
THEY AREN’T.
WE HAVEN’T BEEN THROUGH NEARLY
WHAT PEOPLE HAVE BEEN THROUGH AT
ALL, WE HAVEN’T BEEN THROUGH
ANYTHING, I JUST MEAN OUR
PARENTS HAD THAT MENTALITY OF
EDUCATION FIRST, PULL YOURSELF
UP BY YOUR BOOT STRAPS, HARD
WORK IS EVERYTHING.
ALSO WHAT YOU GROW IS WHAT YOU
EAT.
AND THERE’S SOMETHING SO
BEAUTIFUL ABOUT THAT.
I GUESS ONE WAY IS THAT I ALWAYS
HAD A HUGE GARDEN.
MY MOM BAKED BREAD ON SUNDAYS,
THAT’S WHY I BAKE BREAD, THAT’S
WHY I MAKE BAGELS RISING.
LOOK AT THAT.
>> LOOK AT THAT.
>> AND HOW DO YOU MAKE SURE YOUR
KIDS EAT WELL.
I INTRODUCED HODA’S DAUGHTER TO
TEDDY GRAHAMS ON ACCIDENT.
>> ON ACCIDENT BY THE WAY.
>> IT HAS BEEN A REAL PROBLEM.
>> CALL THEM TGs.
>> WE GO THROUGH THOSE PHASES.
I JUST HONESTLY, I DON’T SWEAT
IT THAT MUCH.
I PUT GOOD FOOD OUT THERE.
WHEN EVERYONE IS HUNGRY BEFORE
DINNER, MY MOM SAYS THAT’S WHEN
YOU HAVE CHOPPED UP FRESH FRUIT
AND VEGIES BECAUSE EVERYONE IS
GRABBING AND THEY’LL EAT
BROCCOLI IF THAT’S WHAT’S OUT.
SUDDENLY THEY HAD THE BROCCOLI
AND YOU DON’T HAVE TO WORRY.
>> WE WANT TO SAY THANK YOU.
THANKS FOR HANGING WITH US
TODAY.
WE APPRECIATE YOU, JEN.
WE CAN’T WAIT TO HAVE YOU BACK
IN OUR STUDIO.
>> THANK YOU, GUYS.

AMERICA.
HARDEST-HIT
