Overview
After 20 years collective experience in the Food and Beverage industry, Treena and
Kevin decided to start The gård, an event and catering business. The inception was
inspired from Treena’s inheritance of her Danish Grandfather’s Farm in Northern
Ontario. Her Great Grandfather Alfred Anderson, settled the land and developed
the farm to produce potatoes, strawberries, rhubarb and a number of other
products. Going back to her roots she was inspired to bring farm to table catering.
