Residents of the Mille Lacs Reservation in Minnesota now have their own grocery store.
The Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe owns and operates the store, whose layout reflects tribal culture.
The store is an effort to diversity the tribe's holdings, which include a successful casino and a
gas station and sandwich shop.
