Back to EpisodesFarmer's Epic Run for Mental Health
Description
Lachie Young, a 20-year-old Australian farmer, embarks on a monumental journey in 2027: running the entire length of Canada to raise funds for the Blue Tree Project, a charity focused on rural mental health. This challenge stems from personal experiences with mental health struggles in farming communities and aims to promote open talk and resources in rural areas. The 6,500 km route will traverse snow, the Rocky Mountains, and bear territory, but Young sees it as an incredible adventure. The charity and officials are already on board, praising the effort as a bold move to highlight mental health and generate significant funds for remote support.
