Sharing Resources
Our network of gardeners work together to collect and share materials that are useful for gardeners. These materials, such as scrap lumber or compostable materials would have likely ended up in a landfill, but can be used to build a healthy garden.
Stockpiles 2025 season update:
Stockpiles are back!
Due to a few generous donors we were able to purchase some resources and make them available to Anchor Gardens gardeners. Our stockpiles are managed differently than the Yarducopia Midtown Garden Depot (2930 Cheechako Dr. north fence side and read the signage). The Garden Depot is open 7 days/week from roughly 9-9pm and all resources are free.
Anchor Gardens stockpiles are supported by donation to help us keep this program going and to support the work of Anchor Gardens. We buy the topsoil from Green Earth Landworks and composted manure from Dave Henke and have it delivered to stockpile locations. Our stockpiles are free to those who need it. Please consider donating to Anchor Gardens to help keep these resources available to Anchorage.
Stockpiles are only available when there is a volunteer to open them. We need more volunteers to be able to open the stockpiles more often. Contact Theresa at 907-947-8217.
I St Community Garden is our only stockpile location so far, located at 14th & I St. Access from alley way next to City Market.
