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.
