She bakes. She gardens. She raises livestock. She arranges flowers. [She hosts TV shows](http://time.com/4483943/martha-stewart-snoop-dogg-interview/?iid=sr-link1), helms a massive multimedia and retail empire, and—now we know—she even plows her own snow-filled driveway. On Thursday, as many parts of the East Coast were hit by a heavy snowstorm, Stewart shared a photo of herself behind the wheel of a giant truck equipped with a plow apparatus on the front. Martha is no stranger to putting in the work; she regularly shares her acumen at everything from [sharpening garden tools](http://www.themarthablog.com/page/2) to [using a hoverboard](http://time.com/4403581/martha-stewart-hoverboard-millennials/?iid=sr-link1), so of course she was fearless in the face of a little blizzard, knowing full well that there’s nothing a woman armed with the right equipment isn’t capable of doing herself. Unfortunately, she might have bit off a _little_ more than she could chew in this instance, as she got stuck. > [](https://twitter.com/MarthaStewart/status/829712832165982209) “Darn,” indeed. We have no doubt, however, that Martha will figure out a fix for her snowy situation in short order. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4665829/martha-stewart-snow-plow/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4665829/martha-stewart-snow-plow/"},"headline":"Fearless Blizzard Hero Martha Stewart Drives Her Own Snow Plow","datePublished":"2017-02-09T21:00:45.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:40:58.238Z","description":"The entrepreneur and homemaking icon also has winter-weather skills.","url":"https://time.com/4665829/martha-stewart-snow-plow/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4665829/martha-stewart-snow-plow/","name":"Fearless Blizzard Hero Martha Stewart Drives Her Own Snow Plow"}}]}] ```
