Jennifer Garner hates to see summer go and based on her social media post, she had the best time in August. The actress shared a carousel of pictures, hilarious internet videos and memes online to showcase how her vacation went. Her main photo displayed her beaming smile, while seated on a balcony overlooking the ocean. She donned a cozy white cardigan sweater and black sunglasses in the golden hour picture. Some of the posts in the set featured the entertainer riding an electric scooter on the beach, cooking and baking her favorite meals, camping, attending a dance performance, her dog post-vet appointment, her workout classes and relaxing walks by the marina.
The movie star knows how to not only play hard, but to work hard too. She also shared a picture of herself at a taste-testing table at a local supermarket whistle endorsing her brand, Once Upon a Farm which she co-founded. She also advocated for PBS by sporting the brand's t-shirt in a selfie. Jennifer also reposted a thoughtful quote on the importance of kindness.
It read: "Being kind boosts mental health more than seeking joy. Evidence: Doing three random acts of kindness a week is enough to reduce depression, anxiety and loneliness. It's more beneficial than doing nice things for yourself. Self-care feels good, but generosity builds lasting bonds."

She has a family farm in Oklahoma that they've owned since 1936, where she spends a lot of her downtime during the colorful season.

Some of those healthy ingredients go into the recipes for Once Upon a Farm products. Jennifer has found a greater purpose in farming and loves to encourage the next generation to get involved, as she also helps spread her family's legacy.

And so here we are, connecting kids to the farm and it gets to be my family's farm that's been with us since 1936." She added: "One thing that I love about the farm is that my Uncle Robert still lives here. He is the holder of the stories and runs the farm to this day."
