Haskill Lately: A Winter Refresh at Haskill Creek

January always brings a certain kind of energy with it — an invitation to reset, refresh, and make space for what’s next. Here at Haskill Creek, we’ve been leaning into that feeling in a big way. The start of the new year has had us cleaning, organizing, and rearranging around the shop as we say goodbye to the old and make room for what’s new.

If you haven’t stopped by recently, our sidewalk sale tables are still out with a handful of treasures left — some marked down up to 70% off. It’s a great chance to scoop up something special while we clear space for fresh arrivals.

Welcoming New Brands (Including Two from Montana!)

We’re excited to introduce a few new brands to the store, including two made right here in Montana — something we’re especially proud of.

We’re now carrying Glo Luxury, a Bozeman-based skincare line known for its farm-to-face approach and loyal following. Their products focus on clean ingredients, thoughtful sourcing, and formulas designed to truly support healthy skin.

‘We’re also thrilled to welcome Moji Herbals, a wildcrafted skincare line made locally in Whitefish. Moji’s products are rooted in herbal traditions and crafted with care using plants gathered right here in our region.

Next time you’re in the shop, be sure to ask us about these new lines — we’re always happy to point you in the right direction and help you find something that fits your routine.

What’s New at the Wellness Bar

This month, we’re highlighting the Wellness Bar and the chef-created menu we’ve been rolling out behind the scenes. We recently sat down with Chef Frank Hanes, who helped design the menu with one goal in mind: creating food that balances flavor, nourishment, and everyday wellness.

Right now, the menu includes:

• Protein-packed yogurt bowls
• A rotating daily soup
• Egg salad, chicken salad, and vegan bean salad

We’re adding new items regularly and continuing to refine the offerings as we go. Whether you’re stopping in for coffee, a smoothie, or something quick and satisfying, the Wellness Bar is becoming a place to grab something delicious, nourishing, and thoughtfully made.

If you’re curious about how the menu came together and what makes it different from typical café fare, you can read our full interview with Chef Frank Hanes for a behind-the-scenes look.

Why We’re Talking About Sleep

We’re also turning our attention to one of the most important — and often overlooked — parts of wellness: sleep.

Sleep isn’t just about rest. It plays a major role in hormone balance, immune health, metabolism, and mood. New research continues to show just how deeply sleep impacts nearly every system in the body, and how even small improvements in sleep habits can make a meaningful difference in how we feel day to day.

In our latest article, we explore what science is revealing about why sleep matters so much and share simple ways to support deeper, more restorative rest — from light exposure and nighttime routines to gentle lifestyle shifts that can make evenings feel calmer and more supportive.

If improving your sleep is on your list this season, this is a great place to start.

Our Winter Book Club Pick

One of our favorite ways to connect with our community beyond the store is through our seasonal book club. This winter, we’re reading Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel. You can pick up your copy at Bookworks in downtown Whitefish, or order here.

The novel explores survival, connection, and the role of art after a global pandemic — a story that feels both timely and deeply human. It’s a beautifully written book that invites reflection and conversation, and we’d love for you to read along with us.

If you’d like to join the book club, you can sign up through the link here and be part of the discussion this season.
