Environment: The Footloose star – who also has three alpacas and three horses at home – added that he “loves” animals and also grows fresh produce on his farm, so he’s able to enjoy fresh vegetables while feeling like he’s doing his bit for the environment

The Footloose star – who also has three alpacas and three horses at home – went on to add that he “loves” animals and also grows fresh produce on his farm, so he’s able to enjoy fresh vegetables while feeling like he’s doing his bit for the environment.

“I love animals, they are a joy to be around, and they are very soothing to me. But we also really love going to the garden and getting fresh herbs, tomatoes, basil, peppers or zucchini.

“Taking something hot off the vine that feels warm and smells like it was created by all these natural forces of sun and air and water and earth and dirt, and then putting it back into your body to sustain yourself… It’s a great lesson in terms of how important it is to do our best to try to protect this boat.” In which we all ride.

“I feel like if you’re always eating out or always getting something out, you’re always giving your power away to people who are going to prepare food for you. I can’t do that for the rest of my life. I need more control over what I put in my body.”
