The show immediately catapulted its stars, Chip and Joanna Gaines, to international fame.
Cumberland County Sheriff Scot Daniels told theLouisville Courier Journalthat the barn stripping problem was more than a nuisance.
“Someone will go back to their barns in tobacco time and the side will be gone.
