January 22 - 23rd

Westmark  Hotel & Conference Center

813 Noble Street, Fairbanks

The Interior Alaska Farm Forum is a two-day event designed to connect local farmers with other farmers and with the resources they need to succeed. If you're an interior farmer, producer, market gardener or thinking about becoming one, this event is for you! 

This forum will offer a mix of formal presentations and time for sharing ideas and knowledge. It will include facilitated discussion of community needs such as shared infrastructure, equipment transportation, processing, access to supplies and funding opportunities, including grants, affordable loans and writing assistance.
