South of Highway 9
Windy Hill Farm raises Registered Percheron horses, beef cattle and crops. The Percheron horse is a draft horse that originated in France. We show the horses from May to November at local fairs, the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) and the Royal Winter Fair, both in Toronto. We also use our horses for wagon and sleigh rides, parades and wedding events.We try to work with them on the farm, but most of the time we come up short on time so the tractor is used more then the horses. They are also used at a Christmas tree farm every year to give rides. They are very gently, patient horses with lots to give. They are starting to be well known as a wonderful riding horse. Hope you enjoy your time at Windy Hill Farm!

Nestled peacefully in the Holland river valley, our 22 acre estate boasts outstanding wines and a friendly, professional atmosphere. Holland Marsh Wineries strives to harmonically infuse the tradition of European winemaking with the finest quality of grapes grown right in the Marsh itself. The unique composure of the soil in the Marsh gives the grapes an unparalleled distinction from that of any other Ontario location. Roland Nersisyan, president and owner of Holland Marsh Wineries, was born and raised in eastern European tradition, where wine is a cultural symbol and appreciated as such. Starting with his grandfather, the process of making and enjoying fine wine has been passed down for three generations. It has been a collaborative effort between Roland and his team to bring the highest quality of wines and service to every person who walks through the doors. At Holland Marsh Wineries, the top priority is making every single bottle of wine the best in quality and taste. What’s more, we are committed to operating our business in an “earth friendly” manner. Our vines are carefully handpicked from our vineyards, which produce all natural grapes & use practices that are not harmful to the soil, water or people in our surrounding area.
