Becca Weaver quits teaching high school English in the city after she inherits her great-aunt Opal’s farm in the little town of Haasenville in the Pennsylvania Dutch country. Running seven acres is an impossible job when you don’t have the know-how, so Becca places a want ad for a farmhand willing to work for room and board.
