Upcoming Events

Pumpkin Fest at the Farm

September 26 & 27

Crisp fall air, colourful pumpkins, delicious food, and time together around the fire—Pumpkin Fest is here! Bring your family and friends for a weekend of autumn fun at the farm.

Saturday, September 26 | 10 a.m.–7 p.m.

Pick your perfect pumpkin

Wander through the patch and choose a pumpkin to take home. Looking for one with extra personality? Adopt a pumpkin and give it a home of its own. Then stick around for pumpkin launching—one of the most entertaining ways to celebrate the harvest!

Settle in and savour the season

Warm up by the fire and enjoy some s’mores. Sample our wines while you explore the farm, and stop by the Bootlegger Café for a special pumpkin menu made for the occasion.

Saturday brings even more to discover: browse the vendor market from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., visit the petting zoo from 12 to 4 p.m., and enjoy a wine tasting. Staying for the evening? Pizza will be available from 4 to 6 p.m. on Saturday.

Whether you’re here to find the perfect pumpkin, watch one fly, or share a s’more by the fire, we’d love to see you at Pumpkin Fest. 🍂

    "There is SO much to do here. Great hikes, fruit picking, wines, spirits and food. We attended the Sunday morning pancake breakfast - food was made to order, delicious, beautifully presented and very reasonably priced. The owners are very outgoing and gracious hosts. They are dog friendly, which we so appreciate. We can't wait to visit again - hoping we can do one of the multi-course dinners with wine pairings. They sound amazing. Should also mention that the staff were incredibly sweet - great ambassadors for the business. Even the young ones are outgoing and friendly - not always easy at that age. We left with ear to ear smiles (and a bottle of wine - lol)."

    "Hi I just purchased your apple wine and spirited cherries. I am not cherry fan but my husband is. I purchased for him and he 'made' me try one. WOW, they are absolutely delicious. The ideas I have to use this delicious product are endless."
