Margaret on Jun 30, 2020
5 out of 5 starsI placed my order to Sage & Oats for Stress Release Sweet Grass roll-on oil on Friday afternoon and received it Monday! The package was addressed to me in beautiful handwriting and tucked inside was one of their handsome business cards with a thank you written on the back - in the same lovely script. I fell in love with the scent of the Sweet Grass, but almost more importantly my heart filled with gratitude for the happy experience I had doing business with Sage & Oats.

Why Shop Sage & Oats?
Sage & Oats Trading Post is located in beautiful downtown Helena, Montana. Our brick and mortar shop celebrates Montana's cultural diversity. Major, an enrolled Northern Cheyenne, works with tribal members throughout our state to collect affordable pieces that showcase the multi-faceted talents of the Plains tribes. Michelle, of Scottish/Irish descent, works with local craftsman as well as international craftspeople to provide an Intercultural Shopping Experience in our store.
Our Etsy page features some of the authentic Native Made in Montana artisan wares by tribal members that Major connects with personally. Not all items are made by enrolled members. We state "authentic" and note the tribal affiliation if made by an enrolled member. We encourage you to read the listings to make an informed purchase.
We hope our store bridges the cultural divide and gives shoppers the opportunity to support artisans whose work you may not come into direct contac with. We also work with craftspeople to develop lines of products specific to our shop, values and mission such as our candles, t-shirts, soaps and more.

Care instructions
If you purchase a fleece blanket from our shop, please note these are machine washable. We recommend a cold cycle to start for maintaing vibrant colors. We also recommend a low cycle on the dryer.
Sizing details
Uncertain of dimensions, ask before you purchase. This is especially important to ensure medallion strands will fit over your head, musical instruments are the right size for use, and to prevent requests for return.
I will no longer accept returns on musical instruments, such as the flutes, hand drums, native rattles or drums. These items are carefully packaged to ensure the integrity of the craftmanship is intact and the buyer receives a quality, affordable piece. Contact me immediately if the item arrives damaged from shipping.
Return of Wind Instruments
We will not accept returns of wind instruments (flutes) due to concerns over hygiene. The nature of a wind instrument is that the player will put his/her mouth on the instrument. All sales of flutes are final. Please feel free to ask questions about size, pitch, tone, etc before placing an order.
