Two popular home renovation duos and small-town aficionados - Ben and Erin Napier (Home Town) and Dave and Jenny Marrs (Fixer to Fabulous) - relocate to Fort Morgan, Colorado, for the next whole-town renovation in the new season of Home Town Takeover.
The six-episode season will feature the Napiers and the Marrs as they mobilise 10 all-star HGTV and Food Network talent to help complete 18 renovation projects across homes, local businesses and public spaces.
The goal for the renovations, which range from refreshing a local bowling alley and revitalizing a public park to sprucing up the downtown business district and updating homes of local heroes, will be to amplify the town's charm, build community pride and catapult Fort Morgan into a new era of limitless potential.
The duos, whose quaint hometowns of Laurel, Missouri and Bentonville, Arkansas, are prominently featured in their respective HGTV series, will kick off the Fort Morgan revitalization by surprising residents with their plan to execute multiple projects in just four months.
Dave and Jenny's first mission, with help from HGTV star Jonathan Knight (Farmhouse Fixer), will include a home upgrade for a single mom who provides equine therapy to locals at her ranch.
Jonathan also will join Dave to install new seating at a popular coffee shop, as well as invite Food Network star Molly Yeh (Girl Meets Farm) along to help create a new menu item.
In addition, Ben and Erin will enlist local artists to give Main Street a refresh with an installation of two large murals that celebrate the town's past and future.
Additional expert guests from Food Network and HGTV lending a hand during the six-episode run include:
Ben and Cristi Dozier (Building Roots)
Darnell Ferguson (Superchef Grudge Match)
Carmeon Hamilton (Reno My Rental)
