Welcome Anchorage neighbors!

Anchor Gardens is a volunteer network dedicated to making gardening resources and expertise accessible to everyone in the Municipality of Anchorage regardless of income or home ownership status. To accomplish our mission, we support all Municipal neighborhoods from Eklutna to Portage.

We connect individuals and their skills into a network for the purpose of building social capital through gardening.

To achieve this mission, a team of coaches volunteer their time to mentor anyone who wants to garden. Coaches support their neighbors with:

• garden design
• troubleshooting
• access to resources (seeds, nursery pots, compost, etc)
• connections to a community working to improve food security in Anchorage

Additionally, pop up classes, demonstration gardens, seed libraries and upcycling campaigns are underway. We are working to reduce, reuse and repurpose across our local food system.

Events and workshops for the 2026 season are here!
