Beyond family, Kolinsky is looking for a wife who will grow the farm with him, as that’s one of his main priorities.

“This land gives me my greatest peace,” he said inhis promotional videoon Instagram. “If I could share it with someone special, man, that would just mean the world to me. I feel like I got everything in my puzzle but one, and that’s the woman to make it all complete.”
