Menno, South Dakota
Pictures and Information
Menno South Dakota is located east of Olivet SD about 5 miles, on Highway 18. Menno is a small town with a population of 729, that has a lake with camping. The campground and lake is located on the westside of Menno.
There is also a free campground in town according to our friend Rich, but we haven't found it yet, we did see a sign though, it must be located at the city park.
We've been to Menno 3 times so far, the first time it was too dark to take pictures, the second time, it was pouring rain, so finally I have some pictures of Menno, because we drove there to find out if the nursery was open. Unfortunately, it wasn't, the lady inside says they don't have plants until April, so we'll have to go back.
We took a drive down Main Street anyway to see what kind of businesses are located there.
Below are some pictures of the businesses.
