The Rochester Folk Art Guild hosts the Harvest Open House and Apple Festival

The Rochester Folk Art Guild invites the public to a fall celebration at its farm on East Hill in Middlesex on Saturday and Sunday, October 12 and 13, both days from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. This annual open house and apple festival offers a range of family-friendly activities including arts and crafts demonstrations, farm-fresh foods and craft workshops.

Visitors can explore pottery, weaving and woodworking studios, and have artisans on site to discuss their latest creations. There will be fresh-squeezed cider, organic apples, pears and grapes, as well as a lunch of hot pumpkin soup and homemade desserts. Children can participate in creating floral note cards using dried leaves and flowers.

The Naples Valley Art Collective will also take part in the festivities, providing live music and additional artistic performances. The East Hill Gallery features clothing made from natural fibers, pottery and carefully selected books. Located at 1445 Upper Hill Road, the guild is easily accessible from Canandaigua, Naples and Penn Yan.
