State Flower

Wood Violet

Nearly as many cows as humans call Wisconsin home.  Nicknamed, “America’s Dairyland”, it is  rightly named so and has some of the best cheese in the world. But beyond the giant pastures are massive rolling hills, red barns, and endless pine forests with crystal clear lakes and streams. The largest city of Milwaukee lies just ninety miles north of Chicago and offers a mix of the rural Midwest with a metropolitan lifestyle. It is know for its ethnic festivals and huge breweries. Be sure to check out the Riverwalk, recently renovated and a mecca for nightlife, cafes and great restaurants and entertainment.

State Bird

American Robin

To get a great feel for the state, be sure to check out the small town of Wittenberg.  It is typical of many small towns in the state, but it is the home of Neuskes, America’s original producer of  Applewood smoked meats. Starting as a small business, it has grown to national recognition and has received many awards at International food conventions for its products. There is a small store there to sample and buy their great products and is definitely worth the trip.
