Celebrating in Hampshire
Hampshire is a small village in western Kane County, a farm town along Route 20, with cornfields and horse farms close at hand. The village's compact center has small shops and community buildings, while the open land beyond it hosts most weddings, graduation parties and family reunions. Most events here are home-based or on private farmland, so access and ground conditions drive the rental plan.
