Buckskin, Baskets, And Huckleberry Habanero: The Made-In-Montana Trade Show

Montana's national reputation is based on who we are and where we live, not on what we make. Quite a few people are putting their hearts into trying to change that. Brian Kahn visits the Made in Montana Trade Show, where he roams the booths, talking with artists and vendors about how they make and market their products. Brian gets the skinny on everything from hot sauce and gourmet condiments to knitted Shetland wool mittens, goat milk soap, non-GMO spices, prints and clothing derived from botanical drawings, wooden toys, buckskin clothing suitable for hobbyist re-enactors of the fur trade era, and hand-woven baskets.

(Broadcast: "Home Ground Radio," 6/21/15. Listen on the web, weekly on the radio at Sundays at  11:10 a.m., or via podcast.)
