Pinconning. Michigan
Pinconning is located in northern Bay County on the mouth of the Pinconning River at the shores of Lake Huron. Pinconning is an Indian name, which means "a place of potatoes," referring to an area along the river where they once grew. The first European settler in the area was GeorgeVan Etten, who put up a sawmill. Later, the Detroit and Mackinac Railroad built a line through there which "put the town on the map."
Today, The City is most famous for the production of Pinconning Cheese, which began approximately 100 years ago. This is an old style recipe which has a taste somewhere between a colby and a cheddar.
