The shows allows outsiders to see some of the Appalachian culture & means of survival. One being ginseng hunting. Some scenes do seem somewhat far fetched but other than that I believe it gives a good genuine sense of the ginseng season in Appalachia. People are also able to pick up a few tips & such regarding the outdoors. Most of the cast are great my favorite being Greg, he's a southern man following southern tradition & taking advantage of what resources are given to us. I really enjoy the show & characters. Great reality show for those interested in the outdoors, Appalachian/Southern culture & the art of ginseng hunting.
Everyone has their own opinion & like different things but myself & my family really enjoy this show. Fingers crossed for many more seasons.
