Raised on the Ranch. Crafted in Montana. Trusted by Families.

Hi, I'm Hailey.

I'm a fifth-generation Montana rancher, mother, and the founder of Montana Made Tallow.

I was raised on the Peterson Ranch, where hard work wasn't just encouraged—it was a way of life. From an early age, I learned the importance of caring for the land, respecting the animals we raise, and taking pride in creating something with your own two hands. Those values continue to guide everything we do today.

Montana Made Tallow was born from a desire to return to simple, honest skincare made with ingredients I know and trust. In a world filled with complicated ingredient lists and unnecessary additives, I wanted to create products rooted in tradition—products that reflect the same quality and care that have been part of our family's ranching heritage for generations.

What started as making small batches of tallow in my parents' kitchen quickly grew into something much bigger. Today, every product is still handcrafted in Montana using grass-fed beef tallow and thoughtfully selected ingredients, with the same commitment to quality that inspired the very first jar.

To me, Montana Made Tallow is about more than skincare.

It's about preserving a way of life.

It's about supporting local agriculture, honoring the animals that provide for us, and creating products with integrity from start to finish. Every jar represents generations of ranching traditions, countless early mornings, and a deep appreciation for the simple things done well.

When you choose Montana Made Tallow, you're supporting more than a small business. You're supporting a Montana ranch family, American agriculture, and a dream built on hard work, faith, and the belief that the best products don't have to be complicated.

Whether you're nourishing dry skin, cooking with traditional tallow, or caring for the animals that work alongside you, my hope is that every Montana Made product brings a little piece of our ranch into your home.

Thank you for being here, for supporting our family, and for believing in this journey.

From our ranch to your home,

Hailey Peterson

Founder, Montana Made Tallow

 

A TRIBUTE TO THE GREATEST COWBOY I'VE EVER KNOWN 

This special blend of saddle oil was created with the same care, passion and hard work my dad put into every day. It nourishes leather, ensuring it stays strong and ready for any ride, just like the spirit of a true cowboy. With every use, this oil carries the essence of a legacy - a reminder of the grit, wisdom, and love for the lifestyle that my dad instilled in me. Perfect for saddles, tack, and boots, it’s more than just an oil; it’s a tribute to family, tradition, and the unyielding bond between a cowboy and his gear.

Inspired by my HERO, my DAD, Jay Peterson

I had my facial today and the gal told me it was the healthiest she's seen my skin. I would like to credit the beef tallow :)

When I bought the tallow to try, Cody just shrugged it off. Fast forward to today and I walk up to the trailer and say, Man that looks like our tallow at home!" and Cody says, "it is, I brought it. That stuff helps me hands when they are hurting so much." Anything that makes it in the pickup to go to the jackpot with him is pretty high endorsement in his world. So, PSA if your team ropers hands are struggling in the dry, cold weather, this tallow is the bomb.
