Factors
Ownership
100.0 reportedCA 100%
The vendor's own story page says the farm and winery were founded by John and Barbara Neufeld and remain family owned and operated, with John Neufeld Sr. named as proprietor and two generations of the family involved. Corporations Canada returned zero results for the name, so the entity is most likely an Ontario corporation, and the Ontario Business Registry could not be reached by fetch, so no registry filing confirms the shareholding or the legal entity name.

Inputs
91.0 reportedCA 85% · EU 10% · other 5%
Product pages describe the wines as crafted from estate-grown fruit and the Happy Camper cider as made from 100 percent Ontario-grown apples, so the dominant inputs are Canadian. Reds and reserve whites are aged in French oak barrels, an EU input, and glass, closures and hops origin are not disclosed, so the split is an estimate. The online store runs on Shopify, a Canadian platform.
