Hanksville lies cradled in a valley where the Green Mountains begin their gentle, rolling descent towards Lake Champlain. It lies 20.0 miles south-east of Burlington, VT (from Burlington, VT: bearing 142°T), and is situated 9.8 miles north-east of Bristol. The air here, especially in the early morning, carries the crisp scent of pine and damp earth, a breath drawn deep from the surrounding forests that climb the hillsides in a patchwork of emerald and deep viridian. Fields, long and narrow, stretch out like worn ribbons of green and gold, bordered by stone walls that have weathered generations of Vermont seasons. The landscape feels ancient and enduring, each rise and dip of the terrain a silent testament to the slow, deliberate forces that shaped it. Even on a clear day, the light seems to hold a soft, diffused quality, as if filtered through a thin veil of mist, lending a quiet grace to the weathered barns and the occasional farmhouse dotting the slopes. The history of Hanksville is etched not in grand pronouncements, but in the quiet persistence of its people and the land they've worked. For generations, the economy here was tied to the soil, to the maple trees that drip their sweet syrup in the spring and the hardy dairy cows that graze on the summer pastures. You can still see the remnants of this agrarian past in the sturdy, unpretentious architecture of the older buildings, their timbers groaning with stories of hard winters and bounteous harvests. While the farms remain, many of the younger generations have found work in the nearby, larger towns, but a core of resilience persists, a quiet pride in keeping the heart of Hanksville beating. The occasional buzz of a tractor on a distant hillside or the distant chime of church bells are the sounds that mark the passage of time in this corner of Chittenden County.
