There’s something undeniably appealing about a man who isn’t afraid of getting his hands dirty — and Ben Andrewscertainly fits the description.
Based in Herefordshire, England, Ben describes his world rather perfectly: “Farming organic veg, arable, beef & facial hair.” And judging by the snapshots he shares, he means every word.
From working the fields and handling machinery to tending livestock and growing organic vegetables, Ben gives us a refreshingly authentic glimpse into everyday rural life. There are muddy boots, work shirts, tractors, piles of hay and plenty of time spent outdoors — with that unmistakable mustache accompanying him through it all.
The photos also reveal the man away from the workload: a sunny afternoon floating in the pool, casual shirtless moments outdoors, selfies around the farm and the occasional glimpse of life at home.
What makes Ben particularly charming is that none of it feels overly polished. His pictures have the spontaneous quality of an actual camera roll rather than a carefully constructed lifestyle campaign. The weather changes, the clothes get dirty and the work is very real.
And yes, we have to mention the facial hair. The thick mustache has practically become part of the uniform, giving this Herefordshire farmer a distinctive rugged look that certainly caught our attention.
For Hunks Over 40, Ben Andrews is another reminder that handsome doesn’t necessarily require a studio, designer wardrobe or perfect lighting.
Sometimes all you need is the English countryside, a pair of muddy work trousers, a great mustache — and a farmer who wears them very well.
Welcome to the farm.
