Adams County, Wisconsin
Adams County sits right in the middle of Wisconsin. It’s not a big place, but lakes fill the landscape. The Wisconsin River forms its western border, carving out scenic bluffs and valleys.
Farming has been a way of life here for generations. You’ll see plenty of dairy cows, but cranberries are the surprise star crop. The county’s small towns have that classic Midwest feel that everybody knows everybody.
Locals joke that there are more ATVs than cars on some weekends. Winters are tough, but people here are tougher. It’s the kind of place where Friday night fish fries and Sunday pot roasts are still happening.
