Palmer has been an agricultural hub since the early 1900s and is home to one of only two experiment farms in the state. During the 1930s the town's roots as a farming community grew with the Matanuska Colony Project. Over 200 families relocated to the Palmer area under the New Deal. Relocated families received a 40-acre plot of land and a home. Farming today looks much different than it did 100 years ago. Farmland is hard to come by, so our farmers work hard to maximize their smaller plots of land. This tour starts with a walking tour of the downtown Palmer area, discussing farms of the past. After a glimpse at the area's history, we'll drive outside of town to meet a local farmer and learn about the challenges of farming in the far north. Our final stop will highlight a small business sourcing ingredients from an Alaska farm. After the farm visit, guests will stop at a local brewery or kombuchery to sip on a locally crafted beverage, included with the purchase of their trip.
