Joanna Gaines offers a cozy glimpse of Magnolia Table’s new farm-forward chapter
Joanna Gaines is teasing a fresh season of Magnolia Table with a homey twist. In a Saturday Instagram clip, the former HGTV star announced Magnolia Table: At the Farm, a pared-back edition filmed right at Gaines’s own space.
“Magnolia Table is back! But with a bit of a twist… Right before filming started I had the idea to film a new series right at home. We’re calling it Magnolia Table: At the Farm and we’re scaling a few things back this time … fewer cameras, quicker comfort recipes, and me in my favorite spot to play, create, and bake something fresh,” Gaines wrote in the caption.
The series premiere is set for September 7 at 11 a.m. eastern, airing on Food Network and Magnolia Network, with streaming available the same day on HBO Max.
In the teaser, Gaines explains that the new season will be shot on the farm, specifically in the butler’s pantry, inviting viewers into a more intimate cooking environment. Fans wasted no time reacting, with comments like “Yay can’t wait,” “It’s gonna be good,” and “Can’t wait to watch,” reflecting excitement for the switch to a cozier, at-home format.
Gaines has been sharing previews beyond the show’s concept, including a recent post about transforming her son Crew’s bedroom into a functional butler’s pantry. She explained that turning the space off the kitchen into a hub for cooking and entertaining was part of creating a dedicated area for sourdough dreams and other kitchen projects.
What to expect: Magnolia Table: At the Farm promises familiar, comforting recipes with a streamlined production style, giving fans a closer look at Gaines’s kitchen philosophy and life on the farm. The shift to fewer cameras and a more relaxed setup aims to bring viewers into Gaines’s favorite space to play, create, and bake.
Summary: Joanna Gaines previews a new, farm-based season of Magnolia Table that focuses on intimate, home-centered cooking, premiering September 7 on Food Network, Magnolia Network, and HBO Max, with filming centered in the farm’s butler’s pantry.
Commentary and context: This move aligns with a broader trend in cooking shows toward more intimate, “live-at-home” formats that emphasize personality and practical, quick recipes. Gaines’s fans are clearly eager for the next chapter, and the farm setting could offer fresh inspiration for home chefs looking to emulate the Magnolia style in their own kitchens. If you’re planning to tune in, consider watching for how the simpler production approach influences the pacing and recipe ideas, and for new fixtures in Gaines’s kitchen repertoire that fans have come to love.
