Few communities in central Minnesota have a history as closely tied to agricultural settlement as Gennessee Township. Its gently rolling, lake-dotted farmland lies in the upper watershed of the North Fork Crow River, part of a river system that runs toward the Mississippi. Fields, shelterbelts and gravel roads set the rhythm here rather than a compact downtown. The township form of local government, common across rural Minnesota, reflects the area’s 19th-century pattern of farm settlement and local administration.
