Founding Patriots, a Royal Guest & Iconic Wineries
The history of Naples is rich and fascinating. In
many ways, it is the story of our great country…
with a few surprises thrown in! In fact, Naples history
is so deep and extensive that nearly the entire
Village of Naples is expected to be covered by two
historic districts.
Interest in the Naples area of New York quickly
developed after Washington’s troops traveled
through Naples Valley during the Revolutionary War.
On April 23, 1788, Nathaniel Gorham and Oliver
Phelps secured the right to purchase lands west of
the Hudson River. On July 8, 1788, a large part of
Western New York, including the Naples area, was
deeded to Phelps and Gorham by Native Americans.

FINGER LAKES BARN QUILT TRAIL
Ties Together Arts, Community & Scenery for a Sunday Drive!
Typically, when one thinks of a quilt, what comes
to mind is fabric painstakingly stitched together
with intricate geometric patterns, something to
take out of the trunk to keep warm on a cold winter
night. Often, these quilts are passed down through
generations, and each pattern and stitch tells a
story with its own meaning. When it comes to barn
quilts though, the materials used are usually metal
or plywood and meant for the outdoors as opposed
to cozying up on the couch!
Originally started in Ohio in 2001 after a woman
painted her barn to honor her mother, barn quilts
have spread throughout the country, and some are
linked by trails. Upstate New York has an incredible
collection of barn quilts, and perhaps there’s no better
place to catch some of them than on the Finger Lakes

interested must send in an application and pay a fee
to The Finger Lakes Barn Quilt Trail and adhere to
a set of guidelines: the quilt must be on a structure
(whether a barn or house) that’s on a public road it’s
clearly visible from, and accessible to visitors year-
round. These quilts can be found on a collection of
buildings in the region, not only limited to barns and
houses, but some local businesses as well!
The trail, which travels parallel to Canandaigua
Lake with an array of patterns to watch out for, is
guaranteed to be a sight to see. Let the Barn Quilt
Trail guide your way to Naples and spend a day
exploring some of the 45 quilts across the region,
each with its own story and history. Winding past farm
markets, eateries, and wineries, this trail includes all
the other memory-making adventures you need for
your Sunday drive!
Don’t forget to drive safely,

Joseph’s has long been a local treasure.

More than 65 years ago, Leonard and Leona
Joseph courageously left their careers to
purchase what was to become Joseph’s
Wayside Market. Their bold investment
paid off, putting their three sons through
college and becoming a much-loved Naples
tradition. Now proudly in its second and
third generations, the family-owned and
operated business is run by Leonard and
Leona’s youngest son, Richard (Jake) Joseph
who first started working there when he was
12 years old. Under his leadership, the market
has grown to include three greenhouses, an
in-store bakery, and in 2015, his wife Nancy’s
Wine & Gift Shop. Today, Jake Joseph’s
sons, Rick and Jason, find great fulfillment in
continuing their family legacy.
“At Joseph’s Wayside Market, we continue
my parents’ traditions of being sincere, friendly,
showing old-fashioned courtesy, providing
high quality goods, and getting to know our
customers by name,” said Jake Joseph. “This
is our passion, and those are the practices we
base our business on. We work hard to ensure

Maxfield Inn
An 1841 Colonial Revival Mansion
When the president of the Naples Historical
Society restores a well-known historic home, the
result is a serendipitous blend of irresistible charm
and impressive historical accuracy: the Maxfield Inn.
Naples is home to several historical landmarks thanks
to the beauty of Naples Valley which caught the eye
of more than a dozen of Washington’s commanders
after the Revolutionary War. Dating back almost
200 years to the 1830s, what would become the
Maxfield Inn was originally built by the Luther family
who owned the property for more than 40 years. The
family finished the home in the early 1840s before
selling it to the Maxfields around 1865.

wife runs Sweetblessings Boutique in the Village of
Naples. Restoring historic places is their passion,
and restoring an antique house was on their bucket
list. Wayne first noticed the Maxfield mansion for
sale during his travels, and he was dismayed at its
deteriorating condition. They bought the house and
began the restoration process.
“We brought this beautiful historic landmark
back one room at a time,” shared Buchar. “We are
restoring everything back to 1905, careful to keep

a splash. This glamorous twist on camping features
large tents atop boutique platforms set safari-style

the community campfire for gourmet s’mores, and

showers and private privies are also available.
Water to Wine Glampground owner and host,
Rainey Jones, along with her husband Jeff, treat
glampers with consummate hospitality. “Guests love
the sense of community here,” said Rainey Jones.
“They also enjoy our food!” Rainey truly enjoys
cooking, and it shows. Guests can also purchase her
available dinner basket meals, one of which includes
salmon packaged in foil for grilling, homemade
mango salsa, fresh coconut rice, in-season veggies,
and delicious bread. Vegetarian, gluten free, and dairy

“Our guests love coming here to unplug and
de-stress,” said Rainey. “Last year was so difficult for
many people, and our glampground is so relaxing.
Our glamping experience is like healing for the soul.”

5 Things You Need to Bring
to a B&B…and 5 Things You Don’t!
Bed and Breakfast inns have long been the
perennial favorite of travelers looking for a romantic
weekend getaway, a more private and personable
stay, and an authentic experience of their destination.
Creating an experience that is at once home-away-
from-home and exotic, B&Bs welcome guests with
the unique blend of adventure and comfort they
crave. Now, with continued pandemic precautions
such as social distancing and avoiding crowds, B&Bs
are being sought out as an ideal option for a more
individual vacation.
B&Bs are unique, differing from hotels and
even from each other, but there are traditional B&B
amenities that many Bed & Breakfast inns have and
do not have. Knowing what to pack and what you
don’t need to pack can save you time, aggravation---

this is your first time at a B&B or you are a well-

Nature Center
Celebrating the unique landscape
& culture of the Finger Lakes
Rochester Museum & Science Center’s (RSMC)
Cumming Nature Center (CNC) stretches across a
900-acre nature preserve just north of Naples. Its
upland forests, wetlands, meadows, beaver ponds,
rare hemlock bogs, and other diverse habitats are
accessible along 15 miles of trail. One of CNC’s most
popular natural features is its iconic stand of red pines.
“People love rounding the first corner of our
Beaver Trail to be greeted by a beautiful view of the
red pines,” explained Sarah Jacoby Murphy, CNC
Events and Communications Specialist. “The pines
rise up on either side of the trail like cathedral walls
and walking through these trees often resonates with
our visitors on a deep level.”
With a focus on creating positive, rejuvenating
experiences in the woods, CNC provides many
opportunities for people to get outdoors for hiking,
cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and more. CNC also
hosts events throughout the year, such as Maple Sugaring
and BioBlitz, and welcomes children for Curiosity Camp
programs to help the community explore the complex
connections between humans and nature.
In addition to these programs, CNC offers
environmental education programming through
Forest School. Forest School programs provide
a weekly opportunity for students ages 2-15 to
engage in environmental education through
hands-on exploration, outdoor skill-building, and
unstructured nature play. The Walden Project, a year-
long education program for high school students, is
modeled on the writings of Henry David Thoreau
and emphasizes a hands-on, self-driven learning
experience immersed in the natural world.
There are some exciting events and updates
planned for 2021, including FLX Fermentation Fest
in August, an ongoing Woodland Window research
and observation project, and updating the ski rental
offerings for the coming winter.
“Getting people to engage with and learn from
the environment is so important, and that’s exactly
what we do here at the nature center,” said Jacoby
Murphy. “Over the last year, we’ve seen more and
more people discover the value of spending time
outside. Looking forward, we hope to continue
getting our community excited about exploring
nature by nurturing their interest in the outdoors.”
