2010 Map of Fertile

About this map

The Winnebago River and its tributaries carve a path through the agricultural landscape of northern Iowa in this 2010 survey. The settlement of Fertile sits at the southern bend of the river, anchored by the Fertile Post Office. To the north, the small communities of Joice and Hanlontown serve as regional nodes, with the latter featuring the Grafton Post Office. The area is notably dense with small rural burial grounds that preserve the lineage of the region's early settlers, including Brush Point Cemetery near the river and Beaver Creek Lutheran Cemetery further west.
