Once upon a time a farmer went to a market and purchased a wolf, a goat, and a cabbage. On his way home, the farmer came to the bank of a river and rented a boat. But crossing the river by boat, the farmer could carry only himself and a single one of his purchases: the wolf, the goat, or the cabbage.

The farmer's challenge is to carry himself and his purchases to the far bank of the river, leaving each purchase intact. How many times the farmer would need to cross the river to completed the challenge?
