Southern Minnesota’s open agricultural plain defines the setting of Hope — broad fields, farmsteads and long rural roads shape this small community in Steele County. Here, south-central Minnesota has a low, expansive horizon quite different from the lake districts and forests farther north. The local character is rooted in working farmland, with the seasonal cycle of planting and harvest central to the wider area’s economy and routines. Hope is a quiet point on the map for those interested in Minnesota’s rural interior beyond its larger urban centers.
