road 169 Blue Earth
a Little Green Sprout (The Jolly Green Giant’s apprentice) statue stands roadside.

1568 Giant drive

The April Fools Day story in 2014, the city deciding that the three new roundabouts proposed for Highway 169 were so fabulous that they were planning to do three mini-roundabouts in downtown Blue Earth when the Main Street was reconstructed. And, in the center of each one of the three downtown mini-roundabouts would be a Sprout statue. This one stands on the side of the road where each car can see it

Little sprout The Jolly Green Giant’s apprentice
"The Valley of the Jolly Green Giant" refers to the Minnesota River valley around Le Sueur. Today, just before dropping down into the valley heading south on U.S. Route 169 an enormous wooden sign of the Jolly Green Giant, along with Sprout, is visible with the caption "Welcome to the valley".
