The agricultural landscape of Martin County centers on the community of Welcome, where a grid of residential streets like Harrison St and Mill St meets the industrial corridor of the Chicago and North Western railroad. This 2019 survey documents a region defined by its managed water systems, featuring numerous drainage projects such as County Ditch Number Three and County Ditch Number Seventyone that crisscross the prairie. To the east, the edge of Fairmont appears near the curiously named Timber Lakebed. Local heritage is anchored by several rural church yards, including Trinity Lutheran Cem and Saint Paul's Evangelical Cem south of the interstate. Natural water bodies like Eagle Lake and Swan Slough persist amidst the highly organized sections and township lines of this Minnesota farming heartland.
