About Readstown, Wisconsin
Readstown rests in a broad valley where the Kickapoo River, a ribbon of jade, makes its winding way through Vernon County. It lies 34.2 miles south-east of La Crosse, WI (from La Crosse, WI: bearing 135°T), and is situated 9.9 miles south-east of Viroqua. The land rises in steep, wooded bluffs on either side, their slopes cloaked in the deep green of mature oaks and maples, a quiet sentinel to the fields of corn and soybeans that spread across the valley floor. Here, the air often carries the clean, damp scent of earth and growing things, especially after a summer rain, and the late afternoon sun can cast a honeyed light across the weathered barns and modest homes that dot the landscape. The river itself, a gentle, meandering presence, reflects the sky and the overhanging branches, a constant, soft murmur that underscores the peaceful rhythm of life. The history of Readstown is written in the fertile soil that has sustained generations of farming families, a legacy of hard work and connection to the land. This agricultural bedrock remains the heart of the local economy, with crops like corn, soybeans, and dairy forming the backbone of its prosperity. The Kickapoo Valley, with its distinctive driftless topography, has always shaped the lives of its inhabitants, guiding settlement and dictating the flow of commerce. While not a place of grand pronouncements or bustling industry, Readstown possesses a quiet resilience, a steadfastness born from a deep understanding of the seasons and the enduring strength of its rural heritage, a character that has endured through the years.
