Terri Wheeler - A Story of Hardship, Resilience and her journey Navigating Life On The Land.
From the skies as an Air Hostess to running the family farm, Terri Wheeler never thought she'd become a full time farmer. Along with many regional Australian women, Terri's story is about falling in love with a country man. After meeting her husband Gav, she moved from the city to the country where they began raising four daughters. But in 2010, Terri's life was turned upside down when Gav passed away on a remote dirt road 50 kilometres from the nearest hospital. Left to run the 12,000 acre property with her four young children, this isn't a story about sadness but resilience and how one woman finds the inner strength to continue her and Gavs shared dream.
