For the 95% of us who put off shopping for holiday gifts until December, it’s officially crunch time. This year, why not give your fellow Montanans (or those relatives who wish they were) something that was made in the Treasure State? These charming local businesses will have everything you didn’t know you needed. Just order your gifts as soon as you can—handmade treasures can take extra time to finish.
This family-owned business has about 550 hives located in the Sheridan, Alder, Ennis, Butte, Anaconda, Boulder, Three Forks & Jordan areas. In addition to their fresh honey, they sell candles and beeswax products the people on your gift list will love. Email them at beehavinhoney@hotmail.com for more information.
While Cello is best known for their amazing art, they also sell exquisite jewelry, natural fiber clothing, and other handmade accessories created by Montanans.

Need a gift box for a host/hostess gift or a creative basket to deliver this holiday season? The Chalet Market has you covered - and you can have a delicious deli sandwich while you're there.
Christmas shopping at a coffee shop? What could be better? Originally, a pot of coffee was brewed to welcome guests to Mountain Arts Pottery, their sister store. But now their coffee, savory breakfasts and pastries are just as famous as their beautiful handmade pottery and other gifts. Do your shopping and then order a custom pie for Christmas dinner, all while sipping a latte.
You might not think that a gas station gift shop would have the holiday presents you're looking for. But The Fort will probably surprise you with their collection of Montana-made gifts as well as their beer, wine and booze from local distilleries.
MT Rustic Designs sells one-of-a-kind Montana decor on an Etsy shop. However, the brand is based in the Flathead Valley, so if you live in the area, you can meet the owner Jamie Howard for an in-person delivery. To access the store, head here: https://www.etsy.com/shop/MTRusticDesigns
From antiques to crafts to handmade jewelry, you'll find it all at Hardin's Fort Custer General Store. You can find something for everyone on your list here if you look hard enough.
This art, craft and antique cooperative showcases the work of over 35 local artisans. They have something for every taste and price range, and it's all made by proud Montanans.
