Hydroponics is emerging as a viable opportunity for growing food year-round, particularly Alaska’s rural communities. The working group will provide a platform for those who are actively engaged in growing hydroponically to share successes and assist with challenges and to provide opportunities for those interested in hydroponics to learn and network with growers.
Want to get involved?
The Hydroponic Working Group meets virtually. The meetings are on the 3rd Wednesday of every month at 2:30 pm.
To get involved please sign up and we will get back to you.
Our working group is committed to promoting soilless growing methods as a viable solution for year-round food production, particularly in Alaska’s rural communities. These systems offer significant advantages, such as precise control over growing conditions, higher yields, quicker harvests, and reduced water use compared to traditional agriculture. We provide a platform where experienced growers can share their successes, insights, and solutions while assisting others in overcoming challenges. For those new to these methods, our working group offers a valuable opportunity to learn, connect, and engage with a community dedicated to sustainable, local food production, ultimately strengthening food security and resilience.
