But Zach, 32, has not been pleased with his father’s decision-making and has ripped him for screwing over the rest of the family.
During Tuesday’s episode of the TLC show, the reality star spoke about his fractured relationship with Matt in a confessional.
“Since the farm announcement we haven’t seen much of my dad. Yeah, it’s just not there anymore,” he began.
“I haven’t really talked to the family about the farm sale. I haven’t really talked to any of my siblings about it.
“The whole thing is just upsetting so I don’t care about it. I don’t think about it, because when I do think about it, it’s upsetting how we got here.”
Zach continued: “In my mind, my dad screwed the family and he’s playing victim. It’s not healthy. It’s not healthy for me to be around it, it’s not healthy for Tori, and it’s not healthy for our kids.
“And that’s why we separated from it pretty quickly. I would look at it like the farm is done.”
SHOCKING DECISION
The TV personality’s confession followed the news last month that his dad Matt had decided to take the $4M farm off the market with plans to rent out the family home.
The Little People, Big World star opened up about his decision to take the property off the market with an Instagram post on Saturday, October 24.

The photo showed Matt standing in front of the home that he and Amy, 60, lived in for most of their marriage with a sign that no longer read “For Sale” and instead displayed: “Coming Soon. Short Term Rental.”
The TLC star explained the yard sign’s meaning with the caption, writing “A few weeks ago I promised everyone a big news announcement…so here goes…”
“When I put the small side of the farm up for sale I knew large deals like that take a much longer time (i.e. 6-12 months) to complete with no guarantees.”
He continued: “What I didn’t expect was how many new business partners and networking connections I would make in the process.”
The 61-year-old concluded the reveal, stating: “Several interested parties talked about many different business ventures such as purchasing the small farm with [a] big house to use it as a short-term rental…think AirBnB.”
Matt made his intentions clear by adding, “I have decided to pull the small farm off the open market and partner with @itrip_vacations and open the @rolofffarms to everyone and anyone who wants to spend a few nights in the Roloff family home.”
In Touch Weekly confirmed that the Roloff family patriarch has removed the $4 million sale listings from major realty websites.
An insider at Roloff Farm also told The U.S. Sun that the big announcement was shared with visitors beginning last week.
Matt chatted about the exciting news during his Q&A at a book signing.
When curious fans began asking about the fate of the famous family home and land property for sale, Matt shared he had made the decision to list the home as an Airbnb rental.
