Good food. For all of us.

Find food and the people who grow it. Make something good with what you have. Get help putting a meal on the table. There’s a place for you in Montana’s local food community.

There’s more than one way to buy local.

A farm stand down the road. A maker taking orders by phone. A food hub bringing growers together. Find your next connection

A little closer
to home.

Find food, meet a grower, or get help putting a meal on the table.

No town in mind? Explore Montana.

Finding a recipe and its ingredients…

A recipe for tonight. A few things for the weekend. Keep the ingredients and sellers you want to come back to in your food list.

Loading stories and community guides…

Feeding more than your family?

A school lunch, a restaurant menu, a pantry shelf. Bring Montana food into the meals you make for others, with a place to plan quantities, find suppliers and work together.

Schools & bulk buying

Have something good to share?

Vegetables from a small plot. Eggs at a farm stand. Something made in your own kitchen. Prepare an introduction that tells people what you offer and how to buy it.

Introduce your food business

Good food belongs in every community.

Hopa Mountain brings producers, food hubs, pantries and nonprofit partners together so more Montana-grown and processed food can reach local families.

In Hamilton, Haven House shows one way that connection can work: people buying 4-H animals at the Ravalli County Fair can arrange to share meat with local families through its processing program. Ask Haven House about the program.
