In an exclusive sneak peek ahead of Sunday’s premiere, Ben and Erin Napier revealed more exciting details, emotional moments and famous faces from their new series.
In the new series (premiering April 24) the married designer and woodworker are taking all that they’ve learned from revitalizing their native Laurel, Mississippi, over the years, as well as the small community of Wetumpka, Alabama, which they gavea major overhaul on last year’sHome Town Takeover,and applying their expertise to six more American towns in need of a boost.
“Since Ben and Erin were here, there’s been this crazy tidal wave of awesomeness,” says a Wetumpka native.
“From the other 5,000 submissions, six small towns were chosen to receive the kickstart of their lives,” Ben said, as the video revealed the lucky winners: Winslow, AZ, Thomaston, GA, Buffalo, WY, Minden, LA, Cornwall, NY and La Grange, KY.
