A 'long-haired city kid' makes his mark on Montana |

When Joe Garber moved from  Philadelphia to Jefferson County in 2015, he was not familiar with  Montana, nor were Montanans familiar with him.  “When I first moved here,” Garber said, “everyone thought I was Mexican, just because I have naturally darker skin.” When he first arrived, he said, people wouldn’t let their children around him because he was the “long-haired city kid.”  Garber was thrust into unfamiliar situations and needed to adapt to a new environment. For instance, he was involved in a minor driving incident, after which he says a man followed him all the way to his destination and attacked his car. Garber says that an incident like that would likely have not occurred that way in Philadelphia: “In Philadelphia, people would have just yelled at you and gone on with their day because, in Philadelphia, they have bigger problems to worry about than a fender bender.”
