Sweet Baby Vineyard began in Hampstead with vines planted in 2006, then formally established in 2008 by winemakers Lewis Eaton and Stacey Eaton. Over 1000 vines now anchor the property, with four additional acres planted in 2019. The program spans Niagara, Maréchal Foch, Leon Millot, Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Grigio, and Chardonnay. Maréchal Foch took Best in NH in 2010 in New Hampshire Magazine's blind taste test. Fruit wines draw from 100% New Hampshire grown fruit. The house has sourced exclusively from the same local farms since 2008 and donates 10% of profits to local farmers.
