Bubble Wrapping for the Future

When my mom and dad moved cross country after becoming empty nesters, they didn’t bring much with them. Most of what was thrown in the back of the moving truck was casually put into boxes and crates. But among the more gingerly caredfor items was a painting. My parents paid for it to be professionally packed to safeguard it from the elements and rough roads ahead. Now, my parents aren’t big art collectors, but this one painting meant so much to them.

There in the painting, a fire ablaze casts faint shadows on Half Dome, a sheer granite face that my father has climbed several times. The low light of the fire illuminates the outline of Yosemite Valley, the place where my parents met. The painting is more than just beautiful; it tells the story of their love.

That art is valuable has always been a mystery to me. A canvas cast with color creates cost? Sometimes it seems so arbitrary. But what is important to us is the worth we attribute to it. The things we deem valuable are the things we are willing to invest in—whether it be a painting, the land beneath our feet, a family heirloom, or health. This "investment" issue raised this question for me: What in my life is valuable enough to invest in? What is important enough to me that I might bubble wrap it to protect it for future generations?

Because if we’re doing investment right, we’re typically hoping that that investment outlives us, and it’s true that there are community members here that are making generational impacts, just like the ones in this issue. I am amazed by these folks who have poured literal blood, sweat, and tears into the things they love.

That painting of Yosemite… I hope to one day inherit it, and in the very far-off future, I hope to showcase it to a group of kiddos and tell them about how their great-great grandparents met and the adventures that started it all. We are all curators of our own lives. We choose what to safeguard and what to let fade. As you read these stories of local impact, I hope you’re inspired to look at your own 'crates and boxes' and decide: what is truly worth the investment of your time, your money, your heart, and your protection?

SAI NT AGNES FARMHOUSE’S HIGHLAND COWS HELP SPREAD JOY

ARTICLE BY KATE HESTON | PHOTOGRAPHY BY NIKITY NAK CREATIVES

FROM PASTURE

TO PURPOSE

If you look out the back window of Catherine Owens’ Saint Agnes Farmhouse, one will see geese flapping their wings, families of deer frolicking about and two black-nosed sheep lounging near a gate. But the stars of the show are just south of the action—two orange, mid-sized highland cows named Betty and Judy. Owens never intended for her property to be a place for entertainment or a petting zoo. A love for animals rather pushed her

to acquire the bunch. But after seeing the difference a furry friend like a highland cow can have in people’s lives, she knew she wanted to use it to benefit others.

The Saint Agnes Foundation, the non-profit Owens created, grew out of a love for bringing others together—specifically veterans. The nonprofit allows people to come visit Judy and Betty for donations, which Owens, in turn, donates to Bozeman nonprofit Warriors and Quiet Waters, an organization that empowers veterans returning home from service by offering nature-based experiences and a sense of community.

Originally from California, Owens and her husband, Mark, moved to Whitefish in 2011 from Texas. Parents to six children, Owens juggled various activities over the years. But when she got introduced to farm animals in 2019 through her daughter’s 4H program, she was hooked.

Owens’ old house backed up to a farm, and soon their family began to grow with chickens and the sheep her daughter raised. They found and closed on their current property in July of 2020, where they also operate an Airbnb, called Casa Alpina.

Betty and Judy joined the Owens family in March of last year. Owens had no intention of sharing the cows with the public initially, but after one of her daughters posted the pair on social media, Saint Agnes Farmhouse “blew up,” Owens said. “It was an evolution,” Owens said. “I tried to listen to God’s whispers of where He wanted me… It just started weaving itself together.” People were already coming and asking to pet the cows, Owens said. Hence, the idea to benefit others came about. At one particular visit, Owens remembers, a man pulled her aside and told her how therapeutic it was to be around animals like Betty and Judy. He served in the Armed Forces and struggled with post-traumatic stress disorder. Wildlife and animals, specifically a one-of-a-kind experience like the one Owens offered, helped alleviate some of his anxiety.

As a mother of two soldiers, an activeduty Major in the Army and a veteran, having served 3 years with the 10th Mountain Division, Owens said she heard God’s whisper after that interaction. The space she’d built would henceforward benefit an organization that helped military members.  In November 2025, Owens established the foundation and has since started to build out her mission of helping veterans across the state.

“Our community continues to surprise and inspire us with the creative ways they support our mission to empower post-9/11 combat veterans to thrive,” Justin Kreis, a digital content manager with Warriors and Quiet Waters, said. “Whether through round-up donations, pint nights, or novel efforts like fundraising through experiences with mini-Highland cows, we are deeply grateful for the individuals and organizations who elevate our mission, engage their own networks, and support veterans in meaningful ways.”

It’s a win-win situation, Owens said while sitting on her couch, as people get to meet the animals and benefit the community. Sitting around her were various stuffed animal versions of highland cows. Her dog, Max, fell asleep next to Owens as she shared the stories of her home. It’s a place she built with intention, and to share that love with others is the most exciting part of building it. In the summer season, Owens allows visitors on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 10 a.m. to noon, asking guests for donations if they are able. By sharing her life and her animals, she hopes to restore and invigorate people’s spirits. “I’m just out here growing old in the woods loving God,” Owens said, sipping on a cup of coffee.

Owens hopes to connect with more veteran organizations to bring them to see, pet and brush Betty and Judy, a unique and calming experience with which she hopes can continue to impact people for the better.

In the meantime, spreading joy—in turn helping veterans—is the greatest purpose she could think of.

BLUEPRINT

to Healing A

No more one-size-fits-all for chiropractic care

Dr. Tanner Klein’s journey to chiropractic care began in a world far removed from clinics and adjusting tables. As a Navy Diver in the Special Warfare Division, he tackled construction engineering projects under high-pressure conditions, until a sudden back injury on deployment shifted his life’s trajectory.

“I went from a super active job in the Navy to working on a job site managing construction projects,” Dr. Tanner recalls. “Even while I was working in engineering, all my free time went into trying to heal my back. When you have an injury, it takes over your life.”

He couldn’t stop talking about it—his injury, what he was doing to fix it, the different practitioners he was seeing. That’s when he realized he needed to change tracks entirely. He went to chiropractic school at Parker University in Dallas, and along the way, developed his own approach based on what helped him most and what he’s seen help his patients the most, especially with back injuries, spinal problems, neck pain, and headaches.

“I grew up going to the chiropractor occasionally for general health,” Dr. Tanner says. “But after my injury, I saw three different chiropractors: one manually adjusted me, one focused on soft tissue work, and another coached me through rehab to get moving again.” Today, his own method blends these strategies into a comprehensive approach.

After graduation, Dr. Tanner joined a thriving clinic in northern Idaho, even partnering to open a second location. Yet he felt the urge to do things differently.

“I wanted to offer more specialized, individualized care. The standard model didn’t allow enough flexibility,” he explains. After spending time camping and exploring in the Flathead Valley for years with his wife and two boys, he knew it was the right place for this new beginning. In July 2024, Dr. Tanner opened Northern Roots Chiropractic in Kalispell, determined to create a practice that truly met people where they are with customized care.

At Northern Roots, it’s not just about the services offered, but the mindset behind them. Dr. Tanner believes that healing is as much about understanding a patient’s life and limitations as it is about the right adjustments or exercises. With state-of-the-art posture analysis, range-of-motion testing, X-rays, and one of the only StemWave

therapy providers in Montana, Dr. Tanner ensures nothing is left to guesswork, and treatment plans are always shaped by conversation and personal goals.

“It’s never about plugging someone into a one-size-fits-all program,” Dr. Tanner says. “I might think a patient needs 20 consecutive visits, but if that’s unrealistic for someone—like a single parent—we build a plan that works for them.”

Practicality and compassion go hand in hand. Dr. Tanner’s goal is to help patients feel ownership over their health journeys. Not guilt or frustration if plans need to adapt.

As Northern Roots continues to grow, the practice is thrilled to welcome Dr. Liv Gilman to the team. Dr. Liv, originally from Fargo, North Dakota, moved to Kalispell in August 2025 after earning her Doctorate of Chiropractic from Northwestern Health Sciences University. She has advanced training in pediatric and prenatal chiropractic care, including certifications in the Webster technique, infant cranio-sacral therapy, as well as proficiency in Torque Release Technique (TRT) and the Diversified technique.

DR. TANNER KLEIN | @NORTHERNROOTSCHIRO

Northern Roots Chiropractic's full list of services includes X-rays, spinal decompression and rehabilitation, soft tissue and Graston Technique, postural body weighing, fascial cupping, online coaching, nutrition consultations, Webster Technique, cranio-sacral therapy, TRT, and the Diversified technique. To learn more, visit NorthernRootsChiro.com .

"Our main focus is on the power of chiropractic care and helping people recover, move, and live to their fullest potential."

Dr. Liv’s passion lies in supporting families, from infants and children to expectant mothers. Her gentle touch and dedication to holistic care allow Northern Roots to expand its focus, particularly in prenatal and pediatric wellness. Whether it’s a newborn, a child, or a mother-to-be, Dr. Liv’s expertise ensures that family-oriented, gentle chiropractic care is available for all stages of life.

While Northern Roots offers additional support—such as nutrition consultations for those seeking a comprehensive approach—the heart of the practice remains chiropractic care and rehabilitation. “We still provide nutritional resources for patients who need them, but our main focus is on the power of chiropractic care and helping people recover, move, and live to their fullest potential,” Dr. Tanner notes.

With Dr. Tanner and Dr. Liv working together, Northern Roots Chiropractic now provides a broader range of expertise combining hands-on manual therapy, advanced rehabilitation, and specialized care. The shared philosophy is clear: individualized care, grounded in a deep-set awareness of a patient’s needs and goals, leads to lasting results.

As Dr. Tanner puts it, “Our mission is to give people the tools and support they need in the office and in their lives. Health isn’t one-size-fits-all, and real change begins when you meet people where they’re at.”

With a growing team and an expanding vision, Northern Roots is ready to help the Flathead Valley community embrace health and healing every step of the way.

PATHS THAT Last

The quiet investment of trail building in Montana

ARTICLE BY SYDNEY LUDDEN

PHOTOGRAPHY BY NIKITY NAK CREATIVES

I keep thinking about how investment isn’t always about money. Sometimes it looks like a man walking among the trees with a shovel slung over his shoulder, listening for what the land wants to become.

That’s the feeling I had after talking with Darren Pfeifle, owner of Montana Made Trails. Darren has been carving paths through Montana for 26 years. First in Glacier National Park, where he learned the slow, reverent craft of wilderness trail building, and now across the Flathead Valley and beyond. If you’ve hiked, biked, or wandered a community trail around here, there’s a good chance you’ve followed his work without even knowing it.

Darren grew up on a fifth-generation farm on the eastern front, where the song of wheat and barley fields shaped his sense of place. He laughs a little when he tells me he didn’t set out to become a trail builder. He was a University of Montana student who applied for a summer job in Glacier and fell in love (hard) with the work. “I just loved being out there,” he says. “I loved the process of it.”

But life shifts, as it does. When he started a family, the long stretches away from home that park work required no longer fit. So in 2008, he stepped out on his own and created Montana Made Trails. “It was a slow start,” he admits. “The first five years, I took whatever came—utility lines, thinning, landscaping.” Then the Whitefish Trail launched its first contracts, and Darren found his stride.

What strikes me most is how much the trail-building world has changed since he began. “When I started, everything was contracted directly with the Forest Service or the state,” he explains. “About ten years ago, nonprofits started stepping in like Mountain Bike Missoula, Whitefish Trails, and Gateway to Glacier Trails. They propose the plans, raise the funding, and then they hire us.” Today, his partners range from the USFS to the Audubon Society to private landowners who want to reach the far corners of their property or create a quiet perch for wildlife viewing.

Most of the trails he builds now are what he calls “after-work trails”. Close-to-town routes where people can slip into the woods for an hour and return home feeling more like themselves. And while the work is deeply physical, it’s also contemplative. “There are multiple aspects to building a trail,” he says. “Where do you want it to go? What do you want the experience to be like? And how do you make it last?” He talks about route-finding like it’s a conversation with the land. Paying attention to erosion, slope, soil, and the subtle cues that tell you when a trail belongs and when it doesn’t.

Sometimes the investment shows up in unexpected ways. Darren tells me about Cedar Flats, north of Columbia Falls, a place that used to be primarily a dumping ground. “People were living out there on the forest roads. Mattresses everywhere.” After the trails went in, the energy shifted. “Now people are out there recreating. It’s a really nice area. It still supports logging, but it also supports community.” That, he says, is the real return on investment: when people feel connected enough to a place to care for it.

As he looks toward the season ahead—projects that will likely take him to Hamilton, Helena, Anaconda, and Seeley Lake—he’s especially excited to continue work at Cedar Flats. “They’ve given me a lot of freedom to make the trails as fun as possible,” he says.

While Darren’s work involves physically shaping the earth, it serves as a reminder of our own trail-building power. Whether we are carving paths in a physical landscape or within the terrain of our existence, we all have the ability to invest in the “land of our lives”—creating routes that invite others to walk alongside us.

Explore Montana Made Trails:

Cedar Flats Trails

Just north of Columbia Falls is 25 plus miles of multi-use trails, part of which are accessible for adaptive users.

CDT Trail, Lincoln MT

Lincoln, Montana offers three access points to start one of the most popular trails in North America, the Continental Divide Trail.

The Whitefish Trail allows for 47 miles of natural surface trails with 15 trailheads. The trails are perfect for dogwalking, mountain biking, hiking, and trail-running.

Mount Dean Stone Trail

Located in Missoula, Mount Dean Stone is a multipartner project led by Five Valleys Land Trust. The trail raises awareness to protect wildlife habitat and helps to reduce the risk of wildfire on the edge of town.

THE PALETTE OF PRESERVATION

HOW JOSHUA MORIN IS RESTORING THE FLATHEAD VALLEY’S HOMES

As thankful as I am for this rugged Montanan beauty, I understand the cost of it. The elements here are unforgiving. Snow, wind, fire, and the friction of daily life are the trade-off of the gorgeous, jagged ridges that surround us. When wood fades and leather cracks, as it inevitably will, Joshua Morin leaps into action. When these materials threaten to fail, his refined craftmanship keeps new home luster not just alive, but beautiful.

At 30 years old, Joshua doesn’t see himself as a typical handyman. When he walks into a house, he carries a palette of paint and fine-tipped brushes, not a heavy metal toolkit.

Joshua’s eyes scan the room for the slightest hint of discoloration. “I’m an artist,” he says. “I’m looking for those tiny flaws in flooring or doors that most people miss. I’m intensely curious. I want to make sure it looks brand-new again.”

Joshua found his artistic start in his childhood which was spent far from the mountains of Montana. Born in Juarez, Mexico to missionary parents, his earliest memories are defined by an air of hospitality, where his family’s table was a constant source of meals for those in need.

To support their mission work, Joshua’s father refurbished car interiors where he gave new life to worn leather and vinyl seats. As the family moved from Mexico to Texas, and eventually through Colorado and California, the business evolved into furniture repair. At 19, Joshua stepped into his father’s workshop as an apprentice.

Though he initially felt a calling toward ministry, a “strong gut feeling” redirected him. He realized that his biggest service for people could happen at a simple workbench.

After meeting his wife, Hannah—a Montana native—at school in California, the couple moved to the Flathead Valley to start their own chapter. They launched Restoration Plus, a mobile service that initially focused on the treasures people couldn’t bear to part with, pieces like rocking chairs, bar stools, and antique heirlooms.

Over the last seven years, the business has undergone a transformation. While Joshua still saves the occasional leather couch, 75% of his work is now dedicated to the “bones” of the home.

“People spend a fortune on quality cabinetry and flooring,” Joshua explains. “If you maintain those things, they last a lifetime. I’m here to help people preserve history.”

Sandy Stash, a local homeowner, discovered this firsthand. Her 20-year-old log home, crafted from beautiful alder wood, was beginning to show the scars of time, sun, and Montana’s dry climate. She originally called Joshua to fix a few pieces of furniture, but she soon realized his palette could do much more.

“He restored my cabinets, window sills, the front door—the whole spectrum,” Stash says. “Maintenance is critical, especially with wood. Joshua protects the investment and makes it beautiful again.”

When he isn’t meticulously matching wood grains or reviving a front door, Joshua is deeply woven into the Kalispell community. You might find him behind a drum kit at a local church, or in his kitchen whipping up a multi-course Italian meal for Hannah and their one-year-old daughter, Georgia.

For Joshua, Restoration Plus isn’t just about fixing scratches; it’s a continuation of the missionary heart he grew up with.

“The main heart of what we do is serving people,” he says. “Providing for my family through a service-forward business—that means a lot to us.”

Redefining MVP: TIM TEBOW’S LIFE BEYOND FOOTBALL

An exclusive Q&A with City Lifestyle

ARTICLE BY ANGELA BROOCKERD

PHOTOGRAPHY PROVIDED

From championship trophies to global humanitarian impact, Tim Tebow’s journey has defied every standard playbook. In an exclusive conversation for the Share the Lifestyle podcast, Tebow pulls back the curtain on the moments that truly defined him, from a humbling middle school church retreat to the life-altering shift of fatherhood. This isn’t just a look back at a career; it’s an invitation into the heart of a man driven by purpose. Read the highlights below, then join us for the full, unfiltered experience by scanning the QR code at the end.

Q: WE ALL KNOW YOUR ACCOMPLISHMENTS ON THE FOOTBALL FIELD, BUT TELL US ABOUT THE CURL CONTEST.

A: I was competing for my future high school team (my brother’s team), and I pushed myself way past what was smart. I ended up collapsing and needing medical attention. But what stayed with me wasn’t the pain, it was the lesson. Would I be willing to do something that others aren’t? For much of my life, I strived to bring my best for a game, but I hope that I can say at the end of my life I was willing to do that for things that actually matter.

Q: YOU’VE ACHIEVED SO MUCH IN SPORTS. WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IS YOUR GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT NOW?

A: Becoming a dad. Nothing compares. From the moment I knew my wife was pregnant, I felt a new depth of love for our child, but when you bring your baby home, the responsibility hits you like nothing else. Suddenly, everything you see, every decision you make, you’re asking, “Is this corner too sharp? What happens if she reaches that drawer?” It changes how you see the world and how you see other people.

Q: YOU’VE SPOKEN OPENLY ABOUT DISAPPOINTMENT, ESPECIALLY AROUND FOOTBALL. HOW DID THAT SEASON OF LIFE SHAPE YOU?

A: I talked a lot about that very thing in my book Shaken . We all go through moments where our faith in our abilities and purpose feels rattled, but I believe it’s often in those storms when God can show us who we could become.

Q: YOU TALK A LOT ABOUT COMPARISON CULTURE. WHY DO YOU BELIEVE COMPARISON HAS BECOME SUCH A TRAP TODAY?

A: Because we’re comparing our real, everyday lives to someone else’s highlight reel. Social media shows people’s “best day,” often filtered and staged, and then we measure our reality against that. There’s a reason filters are so popular—it’s not real. We end up scrolling through images that don’t tell the full story, and without realizing it, comparison starts to steal our joy and our gratitude.

“We’re comparing our real, everyday lives to someone else’s highlight reel... comparison starts to steal our joy.”

Q: YOUR FOUNDATION FOCUSES ON THE “MOST VULNERABLE.” WHERE DID THAT CALLING BEGIN?

A: When I was 15, I met a boy in the Philippines who was treated as a throwaway because he was born with physical differences. That moment changed me. I realized God was calling me to pursue a different kind of MVP, not “Most Valuable Player,” but “Most Vulnerable People.”

Q: FINALLY, WHAT’S ONE THING PEOPLE MIGHT BE SURPRISED TO KNOW ABOUT YOU?

A: I have some weird coffee habits, which include protein powder, collagen, and cream all mixed together. I love golf dates with my wife. And every night, I bring snacks to bed to share with our dogs. It brings me more joy than it probably should.

This conversation barely scratches the surface. Tim goes deeper into the moments that rattled him, the joys of fatherhood, and one story he has never shared publicly until now. Scan the QR code for the full, exclusive City Lifestyle interview on Share the Lifestyle Podcast.
