The show was produced , directed , and written by Jay Sommers , who wrote and produced a third of the Green Acres episodes . In both , a businessman knowing little about farming moves to an impoverished farm . The characters are more conventionally odd , the wife stereotypically talkative and dim , the Sam Drucker character of Sam Drucker is the absent - minded and befuddled feed store owner Mr. Kimball while hired hand Eb ( Parley Baer , who guest - starred in several episodes of the television series ) is elderly and stoic about incompetent management . </P>
