Watch NOW

Where rural-meets-urban chic seamlessly inter-WINE

The Niagara Region, home to one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, offers Jon an exciting playground to explore. Jon sets up camp with his RV at 180 Estate Winery - one of Ontario’s smallest wineries located in Jordan Village. Down the road, he visits Bench Brewing to learn about their sustainable approach to brewing their product. Speaking of sustainability, Jon visits Treadwell Cuisine - a farm-to-table restaurant in the heart of Niagara-on-the-Lake to discover the importance of cooking with local ingredients. After some tasty food and tipples, Jon gets to explore the Niagara Region from a whole other view.

Today’s lesson: sustainable brewing

“Surrounded by generational farms that have been in the same families and producing some of the best fruit in Canada for 200 years, Bench Brewing has been born out of an old school house, making this beer the smartest batch-brew in the land.”

World class preparation of world class ingredients

“In the heart of Niagara-on-the-Lake is Treadwell Cuisine, an ode to farm-to-table dining. I met with James Treadwell, the co-founder and sommelier, to understand the European mentality of emphasizing the best artisan producers which the restaurant follows.”
