Wisconsin Hometown Stories: Green Bay follows the growth of the city at the mouth of the Fox River from its early days to the present.

Through a partnership with the Wisconsin Historical Society, WPT is producing the Wisconsin Hometown Stories series with future plans to profile other state cities. Each program is a celebration of the evolution of a town, its residents and the stories they have to tell as a mirror of the entire state.
