In the last decade, two million Americans have attempted to leave behind civilization in favor of life off-the-grid – but most have failed. For the hundreds of families who decide to become homesteaders, the learning curve is a steep one. Now comes Homestead Rescue. Struggling homesteaders across the country are turning expert homesteader Marty Raney--along with his daughter Misty Raney, a farmer, and son Matt Raney, a hunter and fisherman--to teach them the necessary skills to survive the wilderness. The stakes are high, but the Raney family is determined to prepare these families for nature's worst and set them up for success. Each family faces the ultimate decision: will they tough out their first year or pack up and return to civilization?

watch this show all the time and usually the homesteaders really do get in and help. This time one person spent most of the time standing around with her hand on her hip watching Misty doing a lot of work. Many of these shows the homesteader just may not know how to do something or perhaps do not realize they can at least try. I am sure Marty and his family learned a lot of their skills by trying, learning and retrying. But most of all look at how hard they work. People sometimes just get lost somewhere between their dream and reality, but just need a boost to wake up and at least try. Very good show.

On this episode they planted rice. I contacted Bonnie Plants and they don't have rice plants. Where did y'all get the rice plants?

Where in the Ozarks are they?
