After devastating wildfires ripped through the Okanagan in 2023, a couple who live at Big White near Kelowna decided to do something about it.
Kevin Fermin and Sol猫ne Soton traveled down to the coast and on April 6 and launched a cycling journey across Canada that aims to raise funds for reforestation efforts.
Neither one of the couple were dedicated cyclists, but they felt the need to demonstrate the importance and the possibilities of green travel and tourism.
