The Farrells emanated creativity, compassion and grace in their relationships with the land, water, and kin they called community. Continuing in this legacy is what Eden is most passionate about while sailing the gulf islands aboard their beloved vessel. Inspired by the Chinese Junk-Rig, this cedar vessel was the last large boat that the Farrells built, though you can learn more about their lives and works in books such as โ€˜Sailing Back in Timeโ€™ and โ€˜Salt on the Windโ€™. You can learn more about how this legacy is being woven into modern day sail trainings, artist residencies, and restoration work at edengrace.ca.
