Gene Threndyle in Dufferin Grove Park

posted March 25, 2004

An interview with Gene Threndyle, who established most of the native species gardens in the park:

What brought you to us?

"My friend John Benningen, who's a chef, came to the park because his friend Catherine was working with Clay and Paper Theatre, at the park field house. John ran into the bake oven one day, literally ran into it, while he was trying to catch a frisbee. He got really interested in cooking at the park, working with some of the young offenders who were there to do their community hours. When he heard that you had got some money from Canada Trust to plant native species gardens he came and told me about it. So I guess that's when I first came over to offer my help."
