Despite being Hollywood stars, Kevin Bacon and his wife, Kyra Sedgwick, have opted for a simpler, off-the-grid lifestyle. The couple owns a farm in Connecticut filled with various animals. Yet, raising livestock has led Kevin to give up certain foods. Here’s a closer look at their farm life and what their personal lives entail.
Having a Farm Comes with Sacrifices
In a 2023 interview, Kevin revealed that he no longer eats certain types of meat since living on the farm. The “Leave the World Behind” actor admits, “I no longer eat goat and I no longer eat pig, because I have goats and I have pigs.”

Kevin revealed the reason behind their growing collection of animals: “I love animals, they are a joy to be around, and they’re very, very calming for me. But we also really love to go into the garden and get fresh herbs or tomatoes or basil or peppers or zucchini.”

He continued, “Taking something hot off the vine that feels warm and smells like it’s been created by all these natural forces of the 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 just how important it is to do our best to try to protect this boat that we’re all riding in.”
