Backyarding

Master landscape designer Tyler and carpentress Rachel introduce the four teams and assign their first challenge. The clock is ticking as each family races to sketch their ultimate backyard design.

With thirty minutes on the clock and $500 in their pockets, the teams race through the local nursery to find the perfect plants to bring life to their budding backyard designs.

What's old becomes new again as Tyler and Rachel challenge the teams to select items to upcycle and repurpose in their blossoming backyard designs.

The stakes are high in the first elimination round as the teams strap on their toolbelts and plan their backyard builds.

It's time for the judges to turn up the heat, challenging the remaining three teams to craft and present a unique menu for a backyard party.

The remaining two teams prepare their winning menus and decorate their freshly completed backyards for the final challenge: throw a backyard bash for neighborhood friends and family.
