Geocache Description:

I found this park while walking in the area looking for other geocaches. I thought the area was so beautiful I should share it with others. After you find the cache relax and enjoy some quiet time.Great park for dogs.  Stealth will be necessary.


History

The entrance gate, on the north side of South Drive just east of Glen Road, was once the entrance to the grand home of Edmund Boyd Osler.

A plaque on the gates has this to say:

“These gardens are presented to the people of Toronto as a memorial of Edmund Boyd Osler, and Ann Farquharson, his wife, by their children, A.D. 1926. Here, amidst his children and grandchildren, his flowers, trees and birds, Edmund Boyd Osler made his home from 1877 to the date of his death in 1924 A.D.”

Please don't make this another "park and grab." I like to encourage Geocachers to walk, bike or use transit. A good place to start your adventure is Castle Frank subway station, or better yet, walk/bike and geocache your way up Milkman’s Lane from Evergreen Brickworks(free bus from Broadview subway station to brick Works)

Log book only, No pen.
