For visitors staying around Clifton Hill and the Falls, the most convenient concentration is in <strong>St. Davids<\/strong> and <strong>Niagara-on-the-Lake<\/strong>. A second group sits farther west along the Niagara Escarpment in <strong>Vineland <\/strong>and <strong>Beamsville<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are some of the Niagara wineries where organic farming is a meaningful part of the vineyard and winemaking story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-ravine-vineyard-estate-winery\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ravine Vineyard Estate Winery<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ravine is one of the most practical organic winery stops for travellers coming from Niagara Falls.

The property is especially interesting for travellers who want more than a tasting: Ravine combines its vineyards with a restaurant, bakery, gardens and a broader farm-to-table experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That makes Ravine particularly easy to work into a Niagara Falls day. Rather than spending the entire day touring wineries, visitors can stop here for wine and lunch before continuing toward Niagara-on-the-Lake or returning to the Falls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-southbrook-vineyards\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Southbrook Vineyards<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Southbrook is one of the clearest answers to the question, &#8220;<strong>Where can I visit a certified organic winery near Niagara Falls?<\/strong>&#8220;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The estate describes itself as Canada&#8217;s first certified sustainable, biodynamic, organic and regenerative-organic vineyard. Its wines are certified organic and biodynamic, and the winery has made soil health, biodiversity and regenerative agriculture central to how the property is farmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"resp-container\"><div class=\"resp-iframe\">\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/C6whu28uy4g\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF;
