Genre: Reality Makeover, Home Improvement, Reality
From Homestead Rescue comes an all-new, high-stakes intervention series featuring the Raney family.
Wilderness living experts Marty and Matt Raney and Misty Bilodeau heed desperate pleas from concerned family, friends or neighbours of homesteaders living beyond the edge of survival and who are too proud to ask for help.
After ambushing the off-gridders with an intervention rescue, the Raneys must confront a new range of challenges and emotions to save the failing homesteads, fractured families and fading dreams.
This season will see Marty, Matt and Misty using their building, farming and hunting expertise to homesteaders across Montana, the Arizona high desert, New Mexico, North Carolina and Vermont.
In Montana, a previously-rescued homesteader pleads for the Raneys to intervene with a family lacking critical infrastructure just five weeks from winter.
In the mountains of North Carolina, a mother and sister fear for a 34-year-old off-gridder's safety, as he struggles to survive using videos he watches online.
And in Vermont, a desperate plea comes from within, where a wife has been pushed to the breaking point with a husband who believes extreme hardship and danger means living out his rugged dream.
In the series premiere, "Alaska Winter-vention": A desperate uncle pleads for an intervention of his niece's family.
Jon and Leighann are determined to go it alone despite being dangerously unprepared for their new life in the wilderness of Alaska.
Sleeping in tents beside a mold-infested cabin as winter and predators close in, they must accept help... or risk everything.
