History

Menominee gets its name from a regional Native American tribe known as the Menominee, which roughly translates into "Wild Rice". Menominee gained prominence as a lumber town. In its heyday Menominee produced more lumber than any other city in America. During this time and shortly after, Menominee boasted an opera house, which is being restored [1]. Today, Menominee relies on manufacturing (paper products, lawn furniture, auto supplies, tourism, etc.) for its economic well-being.
