Greetings from Faith

Season 27 Episode 9 | 29m 45s

Faith, South Dakota served as a railroad hub that brought homesteaders and ranchers during the early 20th century. Despite the Dust Bowl and harsh winters, Faith survived and flourished as a vital center for ranching and agriculture in the region. Faith celebrates its connection to the early days with an annual rodeo and stock show that’s older than the town.
