Northern Country Farmer Time.

AU! Canada/Russia/Ukraine/Finland/Sweden/Baltics and other Northern countries move onto a isolated Prairie farm together.
A huge number of Northern Europeans settled into the Canadian Prairies around 1890s, due to a gigantic British propaganda spree intended to populate the empty-prairies. They thought only Northern European farmers could live in Canadian conditions, and the immigrants arrived expecting nice rich farms, only to find extremely isolated, terrible conditions that were harsher and poorer than back at home.
I want the formation of a weird Northern family. Angst, humor and/or drama are great. Conflict, languages barriers, and just the stress and results of realizing you'll live with these people in these bad conditions for the /rest/ of your life.
Multiple pairings is good.
I know this is inaccurate, since only entire married couples with children moved onto these farms, but the thought of them all working together is delicious.
