Jennifer Garner Delivers Love: A Million Meals Program in Action
JENNIFER GARNER'S SECRET LIFE: From Delivering Meals to Farm Work, the 53-Year-Old Actress is Giving Back
In a rare glimpse into her private life, Jennifer Garner was spotted delivering meals as part of A Million Meals, a program that provides nutritionally sound meals for children in food-insecure communities. The 53-year-old actress, who has been keeping busy with various projects, took time out to lend a hand and make a difference in the lives of those in need.
Garner's dedication to helping others is no secret, but this latest endeavor shows that she's still committed to giving back long after her Hollywood heyday. The Once Upon a Farm co-founder was spotted delivering meals with a fellow volunteer, both clad in casual attire, carrying large cardboard boxes filled with brown paper bags containing meals for the underprivileged.
But what's even more remarkable is that Garner's company, Once Upon a Farm, has been working tirelessly to provide organic baby food options to families across the country. Founded in 2015 by Garner, Cassandra Curtis, and Ari Raz, the company aims to create "more nutritious, convenient, and delicious" baby food options inspired by the produce grown on Garner's family farm in Locust Grove, Oklahoma.
Garner's love for her family farm is evident in her recent social media posts, where she shared photos and videos of herself riding tractors and doing farm work. In a caption accompanying one of the posts, she wrote: "Farmers are the heart of our country. Happy #NationalFarmersDay! Love from your biggest fan, Farmer Jen."
But what's even more fascinating is that Garner's philanthropic efforts don't stop at food delivery. She was previously spotted working at a food truck to help those affected by the devastating fires that swept through Los Angeles earlier this year.
And while she's been keeping busy with her various projects, Garner has also been making headlines for her co-parenting relationship with ex-husband Ben Affleck. The two have maintained a positive relationship despite their split in 2018 and have even been spotted spending time together with their children on several occasions.
In an interview earlier this month, Affleck gushed about his kids, saying: "I could not be more proud of my children. I can't even tell you." He also praised Garner as a great partner and co-parent, saying: "She's wonderful and great and we work together well."
But what's really got everyone talking is the recent reunion between Affleck and ex-wife Jennifer Lopez at the screening of their new movie, Kiss Of The Spider Woman. The two were spotted flashing big smiles on the red carpet, with Affleck even lightly wrapping his arm around Lopez's waist.
In an interview with Extra, Affleck praised Lopez's performance in the film, saying: "She's amazing in the movie. I just can't wait for you, the audience, to see the movie. I'm as proud of this movie as any that I've ever been involved with."
The movie, which also stars Diego Luna and Tonatiuh, is set to hit theaters on October 10 and was financed by Affleck's production company Artists Equity, in collaboration with close friend Matt Damon.
But what's really interesting is that Lopez revealed how Affleck came to help finance the film through his production company. In an appearance on CBS Sunday Morning, she explained: "The movie wouldn't have been made if it wasn't for him and Artists Equity...I will always give him that credit."
Despite their split, it seems like Affleck and Lopez are still friends and have a strong working relationship. And as for Garner, it's clear that she's dedicated to making a difference in the world, one meal at a time.
