Alaska Plant Materials Center

The Alaska Plant Materials Center is a leading resource for native plants and traditional crops in the state. Established by the Alaska Legislature in 1972, the 270-acre facility specializes in evaluating and promoting the use of grains, grasses, fruits, potatoes, shrubs, and trees that thrive in Alaska's unique climate. With a focus on sustainability and ecological restoration, the center provides small quantities of these plant materials to commercial growers, who then increase production for food, ornamental, and conservation purposes. Customers can expect expert guidance, high-quality plant stock, and a commitment to supporting Alaska's agricultural industry and natural landscapes.
