Steve Ferris
The Ferris Family started their pulling journey in 2019. Steve , Trent and Emily operate a 5th Generation Cash Crop farm in Tiverton, and having Truck Pulling as a hobby has given them a great excuse to take time away from the farm and do something they all love. Their favourite thing about being a part of the OTTPA is the camaraderie, and getting to meet and talk with the fans of Truck and Tractor pulling at each event.
