The community has a population of 366 in 160 households. There are also 55 seasonal homes for people taking advantage of our rural location with fishing, hunting, canoeing & kayaking, or just quiet time away from the big city.

The Little Fork River flows across the middle of Field Township enroute to its entering Rainy River at the Canadian Border. Rice River and Flint Creek are major tributaries entering the Little Fork in the middle of Field Township.

The northern 1/3 of Field Township is located within the Superior National Forest and Kabetogama State Forest.

Good afternoon Pat,

Expansion of our broadband network is scheduled to begin in the spring of 2026, with services expected to become available beginning in the fall of 2026. Some areas of the township may receive service sooner than others, depending on the order of construction.

In the coming months, all addresses within the project area will be added to our system. This will allow residents to search their address on our website, track construction progress, and complete service applications online.  I will let you know when this has been completed.

As construction approaches, PBC will provide updates to the Township Board to help keep residents informed. At that time, we also plan to schedule a local sign-up day, where PBC staff will be on site to assist residents with applications, reducing the need to travel. We will share details well in advance so the event can be included in township newsletters and email communications.

If you have any other questions, please let know me.
