In the media

Garrison Keillor, creator of Lake Wobegon and host of the radio variety show A Prairie Home Companion, has written that Stearns County in general and Freeport specifically, in addition to other small Minnesota towns, were inspirations for his fictional town, Lake Wobegon. In 1998, the county honored Keillor and his show by naming a section of abandoned rail line the Lake Wobegon Trail.[12]

An aerial shot of Freeport, including the iconic water tower, was featured in the opening scene of episode 4 of the Syfy miniseries Ascension.
