The intersection of agriculture and drainage engineering defines this Greene County landscape, centered on the village of Switz City. A network of man-made waterways like Letsinger Ditch, Fourmile Ditch, and Beehunter Ditch demonstrates the intensive land management required to cultivate this terrain. These channels cut across the natural paths of Lemon Creek and Lattas Creek, revealing the evolution of rural Indiana's water table management.
