In order to save a Georgia homestead drowning in a snake and gator-invested swamp, the Raneys must find an ingenious way to reclaim the Buchannans' land from the encroaching mire and all it brings with it.

The Raneys rush to Texas homesteaders in severe hardship and unable to realize their dream of rescuing "kill" horses. Misty builds a multi-tier garden and duck pond, Marty constructs an innovative horse barn and Matt designs a unique storm shelter.
