In Homestead Rescue season 10 episode 6, entitled Kentucky Calamity, the Raneys travel to the remote foothills of the Appalachian Mountains to help the Owens family. The Owens homestead has been hit by a series of disasters, leaving them without water, power, and resources. Marty and Matt must work quickly to help the family get back on their feet before winter sets in.
As the Raneys arrive, they are greeted by the Owens family, who have lived on the land for generations. The family is struggling to keep their homestead alive after a flash flood destroyed their well, leaving them without access to water. They are also dealing with a power outage caused by a fallen tree and have limited resources to make it through the winter.
Marty and Matt quickly assess the situation and come up with a plan to help the Owens family. They start by repairing the well, a daunting task that requires them to dig through layers of bedrock. Meanwhile, Misty works with the Owens family to establish a water system that will supply water to their home and garden.
With water secured, the Raneys turn their attention to rebuilding the family's power supply. They install a solar power system and teach the Owens family how to maintain it. The Raneys also help the family fortify their homestead against future disasters, such as flooding and high winds.
As they work, the Owens family shares stories about their struggles and successes on the homestead. They talk about the importance of self-sufficiency and the challenges of living off the land in a modern world. The Raneys listen intently, offering guidance and support whenever necessary.
In the end, the Raneys complete their work and help the Owens family get back on their feet. The family now has access to clean water and reliable power, and their homestead is better prepared to weather future disasters. The Raneys say goodbye to the Owens family, leaving them with the knowledge and tools they need to thrive on their homestead.
