The Alaska Frontier was settled by trappers and miners, but another wave, the homesteader turned farmer/rancher, opened up the last frontier, taming the punishing landscape and providing food for the communities they served. Join us for an in-depth half day farm tour, perfect for folks looking for the ultimate Anchorage day trips, with stops at historical sites, living homesteads, and urban food landscapes to understand the lives of Alaska's farmers, ranchers, and homesteaders who call Alaska home.
Living on the Arctic's edge and thousands of miles from the Lower 48 infrastructure, Alaskan farmers have come up with innovative solutions to make their farms grow.
Beauty, innovation, local flavor, real Alaskan living. There are so many reasons why so many people have chosen to return year after year.
