Congratulations to Alaska's 2022 Farm Family of the Year: Martha Merry, Amy Seitz, and Jane Conway of Soldotna who own and operate Lancashire Farm!! The family farm raises sheep and lambs for meat and 4-H kids, meat and layer chickens, ducks, timothy hay, berries, vegetables, and fiber from sheep for wool and yarn. The family is active in the local community and works with many groups and individuals to promote agriculture in Alaska. Amy is the Executive Director of the Alaska Farm Bureau. The family are also active participants in the Fireweed Fiber Guild and the Alaska Food Hub, and are supporters of 4-H, the Kenai Local Food Connection, and the Alaska Food Policy Council.

"Lancashire Farm is the perfect example of what sustainable agriculture in Alaska looks like," said Governor Mike Dunleavy. "I applaud the efforts of Martha Merry, Amy Seitz, and Jane Conway to continue improving and modernizing traditional farming practices and sharing that knowledge with the agriculture community. They are helping Alaskans across the state achieve food security now and in the future."

The Alaska Division of Agriculture will be celebrating our Farm Family on Alaska Agriculture Day at the Alaska State Fair, Thursday, August 25th!

Really cool interactive interpretive panel at Valdez Fush Hatchery. Probably pricey, but what a great way to explore and learn while "distancing!"
