The Mentone Egg, 1946, Hugh Rickley, sculptorMentone is the self-proclaimed "Egg Basket of the Midwest" because of its prolific commercial egg production in the area.
This egg-sculpture (1360 kg) proclaims Mentone’s status as the “Egg Basket” of the Midwest. Poultry and eggs are the basis of the economy in this sharp little town of nearly 100, and much of the town’s lore and history revolve around the egg.
Egg-ceptional Fun
At the beginning of June, Mentone comes alive with its annual Egg Festival: three days of entertainment, sporting events, arts and crafts, car shows and an egg-citing parad.
