"John Deere Forestry was eager to loan its forestry equipment and expertise to 'Extreme Makeover: Home Edition'" said Nate Clark, forestry marketing manager. "The more we learned about the Lampe Family, the more we found in them the qualities to which we aspire in our work and our equipment. In addition to Jeff Lampe's tireless work in the tree service business, the members of the Lampe Family are hardworking, giving, and passionate about each other and their communities. We are grateful to have had the chance to celebrate the Lampe Family and support this exceptional TV series."

Each episode of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" features a family that has faced a recent or ongoing hardship, such as a natural disaster, loss of a family member or life-threatening illness. Through coordination with local contractors, numerous companies in the building trade, and the help of community volunteers, "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" provides a new home for a family in need.
