In a stunning development that has fans of Sister Wives buzzing with excitement, Janelle Brown is officially planning to open TADA Farms to the public by summer 2026! After months of speculation, slow progress updates, and behind-the-scenes work that’s been more grit than glam, this news finally confirms what many have been waiting to hear: the dream is real, and it’s happening sooner than expected.

TADA Farms, a project Janelle has been quietly cultivating in North Carolina, has been a labor of love—though one that’s largely taken place behind closed doors. Despite fans’ growing frustration over the lack of consistent updates, this latest announcement is proof that, while much of the progress has been “invisible,” it has certainly been ongoing.

The “Invisible Progress” Era

A recent blog post from TADA Farms, penned by Janelle’s daughter Maddie, shed light on what’s really been going on. The blog offered a raw and honest look into the difficult side of starting a business from the ground up. Maddie described their experience as “the kind of work that doesn’t look like much from the outside,” citing endless paperwork, bureaucratic hurdles, and emotionally taxing decision-making processes.

While Maddie attempted to reassure followers that everything was progressing—even if not in a visually exciting way—the post struck a nerve with some fans. Many criticized the lack of transparency and updates, noting that if the business is built on the idea of “building from the ground up,” then they should be showing that journey, not hiding it.

Indeed, some followers felt talked down to or even dismissed in Maddie’s writing style, with comparisons being drawn to Sister Wives patriarch Kody Brown’s often circular and condescending communication style. Nonetheless, Maddie’s post confirms that Janelle and her team have been working tirelessly behind the scenes, even if it hasn’t made for great Instagram content.

A Vision Beginning to Take Shape

Despite the occasional confusion—such as reposted photos from earlier in the year and delayed timelines—there’s now real movement happening on the land. According to the blog and a follow-up Q&A session on social media, land has finally been cleared, flower beds are being planned, and home construction is set to begin soon.

This aligns with Janelle’s earlier statement at the beginning of the year, when she indicated that her home would be finished by fall 2025 and she hoped to celebrate the holidays in her new space. While some timelines may shift, it appears that at least part of that vision remains intact.

In response to fans asking about merchandise and collaborations, TADA Farms confirmed that aprons will be restocked, and vendor partnerships and events are on the table once the farm officially opens. The team hopes to host community gatherings, spotlight local businesses, and offer more interactive experiences as the farm takes shape.

Public Opening: Summer 2026

The most exciting takeaway from this update? TADA Farms plans to open its doors to the public by summer 2026. While no exact date has been set—because, as they rightly pointed out, you can’t predict government paperwork or the weather—it seems they finally feel confident enough in their progress to put a target season on the calendar.

This opening will be a full-circle moment for Janelle, who has always strived for independence and self-reliance. Fans of Sister Wives will remember her as the practical, down-to-earth wife who always dreamed of a homestead lifestyle. TADA Farms is the culmination of that dream—a space where she can live off the land, build community, and provide a hands-on experience to the public.

Fan Reactions: Excitement & Criticism

As you might expect, the response from fans has been a mix of enthusiasm and skepticism. Some are already planning trips to North Carolina for summer 2026, eager to be among the first visitors. Others, however, remain doubtful. They point out the slow pace of progress and Janelle’s reliance on her reality TV fame to maintain momentum.

One fan sarcastically remarked, “If they keep launching t-shirts instead of launching a farm, it’ll never open.” Another, more supportive viewer, said, “Even if it takes longer, at least Janelle is building something real and not just riding the coattails of the show.”

There were also calls for the family to document their journey more thoroughly. Fans are hungry to see the actual work being done—not just occasional updates posted months apart. With the farm’s slogan centered on “building from the ground up,” more transparency would help connect the audience to that mission.

The Road Ahead

Even with all the hiccups, TADA Farms has laid a strong emotional and spiritual foundation. As Maddie wrote, the process has involved “whispered doubts over dinner,” countless revisions of plans, and more than a few moments of sheer frustration. But in the end, that’s what real growth often looks like—slow, steady, and behind the scenes.

As of now, Janelle is continuing to push forward with the vision. She’s still committed to creating something long-lasting and meaningful—a space where community, sustainability, and self-sufficiency converge. With the home construction on the horizon and beds for crops being planned, the next year will be a make-or-break period for the Brown family’s newest venture.

And if all goes according to plan, TADA Farms will finally welcome the public in the summer of 2026—marking a major new chapter in Janelle Brown’s life.

So stay tuned, because while the progress may have been invisible up until now, it’s about to get a whole lot more real.
