Est. 20+ Years: Greater Napa Legacy Business Program

Presenting Napa's Legacy Businesses

Launched by Napa County Landmarks in September 2025, Est.20+ is an alliance that celebrates the businesses that have shaped our community for more than 20 years.

Across the country, preservation and community organizations have created legacy business programs to recognize the enterprises that help define a place over time. These initiatives celebrate the “landmarks in our lives,” encouraging residents to rediscover and support the neighbors who have invested in their communities for decades.

Our Legacy Businesses span an extraordinary range—from the 1860s to 2005. Together they reflect the resilience and variety that make Napa County unique: restaurants, shops, cultural institutions, wineries, and services that anchor our neighborhoods and welcome visitors from around the world. Est.20+ is one of only thirty legacy business programs in the country.

We hosted our first Legacy Business Happy Hour in October at the Gordon Huether Studio, where nearly 80 longtime business owners, community leaders, and supporters gathered to celebrate the enterprises that give Napa its character and continuity. A heartfelt thank-you to Darcy and Gordon Huether and the team at the Gordon Huether Studio for generously hosting us, to Mike at Small World Restaurant for the delicious food, and to Vin Traverso and Katie Migliavacca at the Migliavacca Wine Company team for sharing their beautiful wines. The event marked the launch of an ongoing series designed to bring our Legacy Businesses together in a spirit of collegiality and to recognize our local legends. These Happy Hours will rotate among selected businesses throughout the year, and any Legacy Business is welcome to host as we continue building a stronger, more connected community.
