About the Event

Begin this self-guided art walk in the Tasting Room for a wine tasting and then set off for a self guided stroll through the vineyards & apple orchard up to the base of the Niagara Escarpment as you view 18 ceramic works of art created by artist and winery owner, Richard Sean Manning to honor history.

The land that Freedom Run Winery sits upon, the Niagara Escarpment, is steeped in history.

In the 1800s enslaved African-American families ran from the south aided by the Underground Railroad, and escaped through the forests of the Niagara Escarpment under cover of night, from the Erie Canal to the Niagara River, and once across, to freedom in Canada. Hence, our name ~ Freedom Run Winery.

The trail will lead you on a contemplative walk through our vineyards and apple orchard, and up to the base of the Niagara Escarpment, which is the backdrop to Freedom Run Winery.  

The sacred land at Freedom Run Winery offers a chance to congregate, contemplate, and commune with nature, and remember all those who have come and gone before us.

Walk-ins are welcome, but please contact the Tasting Room at (716) 433-4136 to reserve a time for groups of 6+.

For more information about how your group can personalize this experience, please contact: Admin@FreedomRunWinery.com

After visiting Freedom Run Winery, spend the day exploring the history of the Underground Railroad at the nearby Niagara Falls Underground Railroad Heritage Center, followed by a visit to one of the natural wonders of the world, Niagara Falls.

End the day with dinner in the quaint town of Lewistown, NY, after a visit to the Freedom Crossing Monument, which is a tribute to freedom, justice and equality located at the edge of the Niagara River...with Canada in clear view.
