JIM MENKEN is a genius with a chain saw. Once a teacher by profession with a background in landscaping, his full-time passion is carving. Home base is MONO in Dufferin County, an hour northwest of TORONTO, close to the Bruce Trail and the Hockley Valley, where he’s surrounded by nature.

A stellar example of Jim’s work has just appeared in Riverdale Park West at Carlton Street. It’s close to Riverdale Farm and a Don Valley nature reserve. To see more of Jim’s work go to http://www.jimmenken.com
