Our beautiful town is in northwestern Vermont, nestled against the edge of the Green Mountains, southeast of Burlington.
Here is our village with the Green Mountains to the east (above), and historic Town Hall on Main Street (right).
Chartered in 1762, Hinesburg's history is rooted
in farming and early water-powered manufacturing. Today, the village
is still surrounded by open green farmland along the LaPlatte
River, a relatively small town outside Burlington. About 6 miles square, the western half is in the Champlain
Valley, the eastern half in the foothills of the Green Mountains.
The village contains State Hwy. 116 running
north/south, a lively array of stores and services, the local elementary/middle
school and local 4-town
union high school, a number of manufacturing concerns and several parks
and recreation facilities including Lake Iroquois, offering year-round activities.
