When will a product be back in stock? Occasionally, we are able to inform you of when a product will be restocked. However, our practice of using only locally-grown, farm-fresh fruits means it could be a while before a sold out product returns to shelves. A small selection of our products are also one-time releases and only available while quantities last. Newly released, restocked, and sold out items will always be announced on our social media.

Where do we get our fruits and berries? We source from a variety of local, family-owned farms who provide us with top-quality fruits during the height of growing season. A few farms we frequently work with include: McLean Berry Farm (Lakefield, ON), Warner's Farm (Beamsville, ON), Allin's Orchard (Newcastle, ON), Lennox farms (Shelburne, ON), Grebenc Farms (Niagara, ON), and Deer Bay Farms (Selwyn, ON).

How long do our wines and ciders last?

Opened Wines: 2-3 weeks in the refrigerator with a stopper.
Note: After a few days the taste may slightly change due to oxidization.

How long do our preserves and vinegars last?
