Community-Supported Agriculture (CSA)

Coming in 2025!

With all the growing going on at the garden each summer, our students and participants are producing lots of fresh, healthy food! They’re even learning to make value-added products such as pesto and jams! What do we do with all that produce? Currently, most of it is donated to local food pantries including the Fairbanks Community Food Bank, Stone Soup Cafe and other organizations committed to eradicating hunger in our community.

 

To generate funding for future collaborations and educational programming, the Alaska Harvest Collaborative plans to establish a student-run CSA program starting in 2025. We hope that you will choose to participate by:

  1. Drop by a Nanook Grown produce table this summer! You can find them at the Georgeson Botanical Garden during Music in the Garden performances on Thursday evenings or outside the Wood Center on Thursday afternoons starting in mid-June from 12-2 pm. Come donate, and while you're there, pick up some fresh produce to take home!
  2. Complete the survey (coming soon) to help us develop a CSA that best serves you
  3. Subscribe to our newsletter so you don’t miss what’s happening
  4. Follow the Alaska Harvest Collaborative on and and share with friends.
  5. Next year, subscribe or purchase weekly food boxes for yourself or sponsor someone in need.
