Hosmer Winery celebrates 50 years of growing

🌐fingerlakes1.com

Hosmer Winery is home to Patrician Verona Vineyard which is comprised of nearly 70 acres of grapes that provide Hosmer Winery with the fruit to remain a fully functioning estate winery.

In 1972, Cameron & Maren Hosmer planted the first vines in the soils which now make up Patrician Verona Vineyard. Now, 50 years later, the 70 acres of vines flourish and provide quality grapes for a number of wine producers in New York State.

Family Friendly Cinco De Mayo

Despite what many people believe Cinco de Mayo (May 5) is not Mexican Independence Day. However during the battle of Puebla, the greatly outnumbered Mexican forces were victorious over the French through the guidance of Ignacio Zaragoza. When the people in California heard of this battle that lasted from daybreak until early evening, they celebrated for their neighbors to the south. Read More.

Should I DIY or Hire?

There can be a number of reasons why your current home could use some remodeling or sprucing up. There are some valid reasons to try to keep up with the Joneses. If 80% of the homes in your neighborhood have decks, but you only have a small poured slab of a patio, you may want to consider adding the deck. This will keep your resale value on a par with the rest of the homes around you. It is the same with keeping your interior modern and functional. Read More.

Avocados

An avocado is another one of those foods that technically is a fruit (a berry) but we eat as a vegetable. It is high in nutrients and benefits include heart and vision health, improved digestion, and may provide osteoarthritis relief. Read More.
