Homestead Rescue

A beekeeper's hives attract bears to a home that also has big sanitary issues and livestock running amok. The Raneys work on the bees and animals, but their fix for the family's water woes is threatened when violent winds blow in.

The Raneys rescue an Arizona family under siege from livestock-eating coyotes and hungry cattle. Marty and Matt try to build a massive fort to protect the animals, while Misty must find a way to grow crops in the desert.

An Oregon couple's home lies at the base of a 100-foot cliff, separating them from the resources they need to survive. They can raise crops and livestock up on top, but they need a way to get up there and then keep everything safe from mountain lions.

An Ohio couple has all but abandoned their homestead so they can work to cover their costs. The Raneys' rescue plan relies on firing up an old gas well to provide light, heat and electricity.

The Raney family heads to the Ozarks -- where Marty spent his childhood homesteading -- and discover a malnourished couple and a moldy cabin that's making them sick. Massive electric storms hit, but the homestead must be built before Mother Nature wins.

The Raneys come to the aid of a couple in Hawaii who built their dream homestead in the path of life-threatening flash floods. As the weather closes in, they fight to save the homestead from drowning and also win the trust of the homesteaders.

A Missouri homestead gives the Raneys their biggest challenge ever. Aside from a lack of food and power, the threats include hungry bears, disease-carrying ticks and 60 massive oaks looming over a flimsy cabin in tornado alley.
