New Piggly Wiggly owner excited to energize De Pere, Kaukauna stores

De Pere and Kaukauna Piggly Wiggly shoppers can expect an experience "above and beyond your normal Piggly Wiggly," according to the stores' future owners . Fox Bros. Piggly Wiggly on Nov. 2 announced it would purchase the stores at 300 E. Ann St., Kaukauna, and 575 Swan Road, De Pere, effective Jan. 31. Mike Olwig, the company's president, said the 100% employee-owned grocery chain turns its special sales, like a one-day meat sale and bratfest, into full-blown events. "We do it above and beyond your normal Piggly Wiggly," Olwig said. "We like to have fun with them. It’s definitely an event in the store." Olwig said the company will look to infuse the same energy into the Kaukauna and De Pere stores next year. The two stores will be the 12th and 13th stores Hartland-based Fox Bros. owns and operates. They'll be the first two in northeastern Wisconsin. When the opportunity arose to buy the two stores from Stoneridge Meat and Country Market, Fox Bros. was excited for the opportunity to continue to grow. "What better way than into new markets?

Rockland couple fights annexation into De Pere | Exclusive

In Rockland, at the edge of De Pere, Triston and Kate Winiecki settled their life. Triston, a veteran and school behavioral interventionist, and Kate, a social worker, found their house on a drive down Ryan Road. They wrote a letter to the owners, who hadn’t listed it for sale, and bought it in 2021. They said they took out several hundred thousand dollars in loans to rid it of mold and turn it into a home. They had a kid together. And out back, past the Concord grapevines and beehives, they got married. When Rockland agreed in August to merge with Greenleaf to keep the area’s rural character and stave off further annexations into De Pere, the Winieckis welcomed it. They believed the agreement would keep the land around them undeveloped, and the quiet life they moved to Rockland for would stay intact. A certified letter then arrived for Triston on Sept. 11. The letter said Howard Frankenthal, owner of several hundred acres in Rockland, wished to annex the Winieckis’ property into De Pere. “I’m like, ‘How is this legal?’” Triston said in an interview with the Green Bay Press-Gazette. “And it is legal, but it’s not right.” Land disputes
