A snapshot of this quaint place would include coffee and fresh fruit, cocktails and pizza (both whipped up using nearby ingredients) — with CanCon playing in the background. In short, locavores will feel right at home.

Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by breezy lavender bushes and buzzing bees. Creating interesting wines with minimal intervention, this winery celebrates all things bee-related. Take part in a mead tasting, bee tour or honey sampling.

Known for using Guernsey (a breed of cow that yields high-fat milk), UCCC’s cheeses are a special treat. Find everything from fresh ricotta and curds to their flagship Comfort Cream and grillable Guernsey Girl cheeses.

Picture-worthy fruits and vegetables are plentiful at Quiet Acres. But this is not just a pretty fruit stand — look for their baskets of imperfect produce or take advantage of the mixed fruit option, because sometimes you just want to try all the varieities.

Take a turn at the big red barn, where you’ll discover seasonal brews and classic craft favourites. Also, find Brush Fire Smoke, which operates at the brewery. Their modern take on barbecue is worth the trip, and served with Oast beer, it’s a meal combo that’s tough to top.
