Meet our vendors
Every Saturday, downtown Missoula fills in around a lineup of Montana-made apparel, handmade jewelry, Native art, and one-of-a-kind goods. Here's some of what's on the lot — with links to shop online, and where to find them on the live vendor map.
Long-time vendors
These vendors show up again and again across years of Higgins Lot market maps — the kind of repeat, reliable presence that makes a Saturday market feel like a neighborhood.
Shannon Thomasson — Clay Momma
One of Higgins Lot's longest-tenured vendors, Shannon has sold her handmade ceramics under the Clay Momma name at the market since 2021. Six seasons in, her mugs, bowls, and other functional pottery remain a staple of the market's handmade-goods lineup.
The Last Best Store
The Last Best Store has been a Higgins Lot fixture since 2023, selling hats, apparel, and Montana gifts. The booth's success here helped it grow into a full storefront in Southgate Mall — proof of what a market booth can become.
Visit their site →Wind Horse Clothing
Wind Horse Clothing has run a Saturday booth at Higgins Lot since 2023, selling imported and ethnic clothing from the Pine Street row, next to the tree. The vendor already ran a storefront in downtown Missoula before joining the market, and still operates both.

Christine Harris, known at the market as "Kricket," has sold 3D-printed toys under her brand Spectrum 3D Prints since 2024.
Visit their site →Little Song Design
Liedeke is a longtime Missoula resident with art a big part of her history — her mother Hanneke ran The Schoolhouse Market west of Missoula, and her late sister Hedvig was the artist behind Blue Heron Design. Little Song Design, the Dutch translation of her name, is her own business: over 300 greeting cards, hand-sewn felt lavender ornaments and sachets, earrings, and one-of-a-kind Montana-motif art pieces.
