Let local flavours guide your journey. From farm-to-table dining and casual bites to picnic-ready takeaways, Huron County’s culinary scene is rooted in fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Follow the Taste Trails to discover farm gates, Farmers’ Markets, wineries, breweries, and the producers behind it all, or experience agritourism firsthand with stops that take you on farm to meet famers who produce .

Stay awhile, breathe deeply, savour the sunsets, and enjoy the countryside.

Bet you didn’t know that Huron County is one of Ontario’s most exciting new wine regions. Maelstrom Winery in Seaforth, and of course, Feast On® Certified Hessenland Inn & Schatz Winery in Zurich and Dark Horse Estate Winery in Grand Bend are all must-try experiences. Don’t skip the rose slushie at Dark Horse – it’s divine!
Looking to celebrate something special? Feast On Certified Eddington’s of Exeter‘s in – you guessed it – Exeter, is a bucketlist experience. Chef James Eddington and his crew create beautiful, hyper local-focused plates with finesse for visitors from across the country. Book ahead to secure your spot on their lovely patio.
The beer in Huron County is good, but the beer experiences are better! Visit Cowbell Brewing Co. in Blyth for a taste of what this region is all about: community, ingenuity and craft. Also of note Stone House Brewing.
This is sunset country, so make sure you make time to feel the sand between your toes. We recommend visiting a farmstand or two, picking up some freshly picked strawberries and spending the afternoon munching them on the beach.
