Fur, Tip and Nug are junkyard fairies. They are messy, bossy and never eat their vegetables. Having left their corner of the junkyard, the fairies and their friends sail down the junk river on the back of a turtle called Old in search of a new place to live.
Join them as they navigate life on the river, meet new friends and learn what truly makes a home.
