Closing the Loop: Alaska Farming for Self-Sustainability
Update: 2025-09-04
Description
In this episode of the Sustainable Alaska Podcast, Tandy and Kelli chat about what it really looks like to “close the loop” on the homestead. From growing more of your own feed and improving soil, to cutting back on outside inputs and - every little step adds up.
They also talk about the role community plays in all of this. None of us can do it alone, and sometimes it’s the local bartering, swapping, or just leaning on neighbors that makes self-sustainability possible in Alaska.
It’s an honest conversation about the challenges and the wins when you’re trying to create a farm or homestead that can stand on its own - and with the help of community.
