Farmers plus their 35 Animals pull up roots to go from Yukon to New Brunswick in 80 days

It may not have been exactly 80 days for this adventure but relating it to Around the World in Eighty Days seems somehow right.

Gemma Pearse and Jeremy Duplessis moved their entire life including assorted furred and feathered livestock in an action packed drive from Dawson City, Yukon to Cornhill, New Brunswick and lived to tell the tale to Small Farm Canada contributor Matt Jones.

Matt tells the story of Gemma and Jeremy’s cross-country journey, the obstacles encountered and the happy ending in the January-February 2023 issue of Small Farm Canada.

Video: Syngenta Ag Stories - Reanna Hagel, Channel Marketing Manager

Growing up on a cow-calf operation and small feedlot near Lumby, BC, Reanna learned agriculture the hands-on way with her sister on the family farm. Today, as Channel Marketing Manager for Syngenta Canada, what Reanna loves most about her work is simple: the customer is always at the centre. Whether that's a grower or a channel partner, she understands them on a personal level - because she's the daughter of one. But for Reanna, supporting ag doesn't stop at her job. She volunteers with local 4-H clubs, lends a hand to her farming neighbours, and is raising her own kids to understand and respect the land. Her advice to the next generation? "It's an amazing time to be in the industry - it's going to look completely different in 20 years. To be part of the evolution is very exciting."
