Hello and welcome to Fair Winds Llama Ranch. We are a retired military family enjoying this new life chapter outside Helena, MT.   
Steve completed his 20 year service a year after returning from deployment to Afghanistan as a CH-47D Maintenance Pilot with the Montana Army National Guard. He has since retired, after combined years of service and four deployments as a helicopter pilot in both the Marines and the Montana National Guard.
In 2005, Nancy retired from the Navy at her last duty station in Washington, DC, and we traveled west to find some mountains to call home.  We were blessed to raise two lovely daughters and are now enjoying our amazing grandchildren!

In 2016, we purchased the Star Castle Fiber Mill in Oregon and moved it to Helena. We are pleased to enjoy the adventure of producing beautiful batts, roving, and yarns from our own animals and from customers throughout the northwest United States.

We look forward to seeing you at our venues this year. Come by and get to know us and see what we do. We love talking about the animals and all the exciting happenings!
