Oxford County Foodie Tour!
Gunn's Hill Artisan Cheese • Deep Purple Lavender Farm • Thames River Melons Pick Your Own Vegetables & Blueberries Farm • Lovely lunch included at Elmhurst Inn & Spa!

Escape the city and treat your senses to a flavourful journey through Ontario’s lush farmland on this mouthwatering day trip from Toronto to Oxford County in Southwestern Ontario.

​Our adventure begins with a fragrant and peaceful stroll through the enchanting fields of Deep Purple Lavender Farm. Breathe in the calming scent of blooming lavender as you enjoy a glass of refreshing lavender lemonade and a melt-in-your-mouth lemon-glazed lavender shortbread. This delightful stop sets the tone for a day full of rustic indulgence.

Next, we head to the charming Elmhurst Inn & Spa, where a sumptuous lunch buffet awaits. Savour seasonal dishes made with local ingredients in a historic setting that’s equal parts elegant and cozy. With satisfied appetites, we continue on to Gunn’s Hill Artisan Cheese, where the rich aroma of handcrafted cheeses greets us. Take a behind-the-scenes peek at their cheese-making process, followed by a delectable tasting of their award-winning creations — a true treat for cheese lovers.

We end our day at the cheerful and bountiful Thames River Melons U-Pick Farm, where guests can wander the fields and hand-pick fresh vegetables, juicy raspberries, and plump blueberries bursting with summer sweetness. On the journey home, we’ll stop for a quick washroom and dinner break, giving you time to relax and reflect on a day filled with country charm and unforgettable flavours. Don’t forget to bring a cooler — you’ll want to take some goodies home!
