Landscaping begins, renovations continue inside the viewing room overlooking the indoor arena, and the episode wraps up with an unexpected mishap when Jeff takes a hard fall from a donkey.

Episode 2: Get a Hobby

The farmhouse summer kitchen undergoes a dramatic renovation, and Rachel decides the second story needs to come down.

An aging shed outside Rachel’s home gets a new purpose, but not before Jeff and Rachel debate what to call it.

When Rachel leaves for a business trip to Dallas, Jeff takes matters into his own hands—and plans a surprise birthday party for her return.

Episode 4: Nice Caboose

Rachel begins renovating the farm’s tack room before taking her two sons on a Lancaster, Pennsylvania adventure. They visit a

farmers market, a model train museum, an ice cream factory, a science museum, and spend the night in a motel built from restored train cabooses. Back on the farm, the crew transforms a cluttered storage area into a beautiful, functional tack room.

Episode 5: Cat Scratch Fever

An old school bus gets a second life as a custom chicken coop. While cleaning it out, Stephen encounters a cat and reveals his fear of felines. Moving the bus requires some extra horsepower, and Jeff comes up with the unusual idea that singing to the chickens will increase egg production. Rachel finishes the project with decorative flower boxes.

Season One Finale

Over eight episodes, Jeff and Rachel completely transform the 95-acre property—from fences, barns, and pastures to outbuildings and workspaces—creating a premier horse boarding facility for the local equestrian community. With one successful transformation complete, they’re ready to take on an all-new farm in Season 2.
