In 2019 Marie and her fam decided it was time to sell her Boston gift shop of 10 years and get back to enjoying the outdoors. After 7 months of traveling around in an 23ft travel trailer with a 1 year old & 2 dogs, they stumbled upon Franklin and fell in love. Fast forward to today they’ve added 10 chickens and a cute shop to their chaos and they wouldn’t change it for the world.
