Fertile

Community Info

Fertile was founded by William Rhodes, a Canadian who came to Iowa and was told of a mill processing wheat into flour in Fertile.

The town's nickname is "Putsy" given by a map maker who saw a town nearby called Fontanelle - though it only existed on the map - it was called Putsy and the name stuck with Fertile.
