This Quirky Co-Op In Montana Has Everything You Didn't Know You Needed

If you live in one of Montana’s many tiny towns, you’re already aware of how challenging it can be to get supplies without making a lengthy drive. That’s why we have so many charming co-ops and general stores, like Cooke City General Store. So we weren’t surprised to hear that the people of Neihart (all 37 of them) formed a co-op to conserve the only store on Highway 89 Scenic Byway between Belt and White Sulphur Springs. If you’re ever in the area, stop by the Neihart Inconvenience Store.
