The event was already fully booked, but I easily found tickets available for the next scheduled tour at 10 AM. We were fortunate enough to have Kate as our tour guide. She is awesome!

Kate told us about the plans for the future and expansion etc. We will also look forward to coming back again.

Newly opened farm store is behind the house and in front of the gardens. They had fresh strawberries, raspberries & pine berries when we visited the week before July 4th.

I absolutely love this Festival. I remember coming here when I was younger and enjoying the food…read moreand the events. Fast forward 20+ years, and I introduced it to my wife. It starts off with a nice pleasant drive through some really beautiful country along scenic Canandaigua Lake. We come in from the North, and since we arrive early in the morning parking is plentiful. However, there is a 10-15 minute walk to get to the center of the festival area. Along the way, you can look at the small stores selling their wares (books, records, etc.) and peruse the many garage sales that pop up along main street. When you arrive at the festival, you are hit with a three-fold attack of (1) great carnival food, (2) lots of arts and crafts vendors, and (3) live music and the cacophony of thousands of people in one space. Aside from the typical kettle corn, fried dough, and sausage sandwiches, you can feast on anything and everything that can be made with a grape... pies, cakes, cookies, cotton candy, ice cream, etc. Frankly, it is a bit overwhelming but in a wonderful way. We don't usually buy too many crafts or artwork (and if you do, be warned that you will need to carry it back to your car somehow) but we do enjoy some things that are just necessary on a day like this: Carnival Waffles (which you cannot get outside of Western NY, and asking about them will just lead to blank stares), grape pie, and lots of bottled water. Who has the best grape pie? If you read the signs, that will narrow it done but I try a new place every time and seem to enjoy them all. Grape pie tastes like blueberry + wine... yummy! There are wine vendors too, and a nearby winery offers tasting and I think tours though we have never done it. This festival takes the best things in life and combines them. Carnival food minus the weird looking carnys; beautiful New York fall scenery with lovely, sunny weather; amazing arts and crafts with plenty of useless made in China junk and dozens of yard sales thrown in, and people having fun. Just watch the bikers that try and ride down Main Street every year only to get stuck in traffic. Even then they are having a blast. The local school gets involved too with various fundraisers. Hint: when you buy food from the area next to the school, make sure you get all the ketchup you need before you go and sit down on the grassy knoll. Navigating the crowds to get the small things you forgot with your food is no fun. I cannot wait until September when I can go again!

I have a love/hate relationship with the Naples Grape Festival. On the one hand you have a great…read moreopportunity to get your hand on some of the greatest Grape pies around. On the other, crowds of people, money trap, long waits to get in and out of the village. Here's what's lacking: *Not much (good)entertainment *Everyone is selling anything and everything (junk included) *Crowded sidewalks where people stop directly in the middle without regard to the line of others behind them. *A long drive from the city Here's what I love: *Views of the lake on the drive down *Views of fall foliage *Joseph's Wayside Market *Grape pocket cookies from the church in the center of town *Jeni's Pies are the best *Plenty of (paid) parking at Hazlitt *Wine slushies from Hazlitt YUM! In the past there seemed to be more artisans, but this year it felt like there were vendors just selling anything. It felt overwhelming with so many people crammed in in the sidewalks. I'll admit it's a great walk from one end of town to the other. Make your way to the south end to check out Joseph's. If you've never been, it's worth the trip, just be prepared for people to stop in front of you without warning because they can't text and walk at the same time!

Once there, we were with a group of seven. The man at the bar completely ignored my son, spoke to everyone else in the group and gave him the cold shoulder. I came to the bar to sit and was completely ignored by the same man. A different gentleman came to see if I was being helped. Why did this particular man completely ignore my son and I. Maybe because we are Asian American. He spoke to EVERYONE else in the group but us. Fulkersons your staff needs to do better. Not ok! It's 2024, there is no place for racism.

Catherine Valley Winery is located just outside of Watkins Glen on the east side of Seneca Lake…read more Mini flights are $12 and are enough to catch a bit of a buzz. If you wanted to just taste a sip of wine, I'm not sure how that works. I am into sweeter whites these days, and the four I tried did not disappoint. I had riesling (good but not extraordinary), Lost Irishman, Seneca Steamer (I enjoyed these both equally), and Viva (sparkling). The ambiance is the best part - the patio overlooking the lake is lovely. We enjoyed our wine while taking in the scenery. We purchased two bottles of wine and one hard cider, and they were all $19, The bathroom could use an update, but that was my only quibble. CV isn't the fanciest Finger Lakes winery but it's relaxing and enjoyable.
