Ep 3 - Patrick

from Thru Here · host Thru Here

Patrick is a bit of a local celebrity in Riding Mountain National Park. He might deny that, but we see what happens when he walks down the street during the height of the summer season. We sat down with him around a fire to talk about why he chose to live near the park, how he got to be a Parks Canada interpreter and how him and his partner Sherry built a house out of straw. Yes, you heard that right. What leads someone to not only live in, but also build a house of straw? Listen along as we find out! Thru Here releases new episodes every Thursday.  Season one of Thru Here takes place in Riding Mountain National Park, a vast forested oasis among Manitoba’s hundreds of kilometres of prairie, and a destination for many travellers. Thru Here is recorded on Treaty 2 territory. The land is the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota and Dene Peoples and the homeland of the Metis Nation. The land is also used by Indigenous nations from Treaties 1, 3 and 4. Check out thruherepod.com for extended content and to learn more about Riding Mountain National Park.
