Made-in-Montana, just in time for Christmas. While everyone wants to shop local, that can easily mean shopping “Made-in-Montana” products.  There are sooo many. The idea of publishing a list of Montana producers of great gift items as a helpful guide, quickly diminished to just a list of those in Billings… but even then it turns out to be a v-e-r-y long, long list on the Made-in-Montana website.

But wait! There are many, many producers and manufacturers in Billings who aren’t even listed on that website. Statewide the website lists 2049 – and that again comes nowhere near listing all of them … 

No doubt about it Montana is full of very creative, hardworking and productive people—just take a look.
