Matanuska Community Farmers Market

The Matanuska Community Farmers’ Market is a family friendly farm and food-specific market that welcomes all patrons. We aim to offer the community access to locally, sustainably, and naturally grown, produced, harvested, and foraged foods. The market was established in 2023, with the help of the Alaska Farmers’ Market Association and grant funding through the Mat-Su Health Foundation, to aid in the development and growth of the Matanuksa Valley’s small-scale, diversified agricultural production and direct farmer/producer to consumer sales by:

• Being an outlet for small scale producers to reach community members

• Providing community members with access to sustainably, naturally and locally/Alaska grown, produced, and foraged foods

• Increase fresh food access to underserved and low-income individuals and families

• Foster farmer and consumer education and relationships

• Build community
