Anchor Gardens
Anchor Gardens provides resources and education to residents of the Municipality of Anchorage in addition to events like seed and seedling exchanges.

Today’s show was inspired by Earth Day and how humans can minimize their impact on the planet. We're joined by the Network Connector for Anchor Gardens, a local group that has their hands in all sorts of eco-friendly projects like co-op gardens, tiny homes, and “stockpile” stations.

HOST: Dave Waldron

GUEST: Larissa Wright-Elson
