Hilarious video by one of our fave non-local vendors. Did you know we carry these strips in bulk? Come ask for a free sample! We also carry many other laundry-room necessities.

It’s fall and Alaska’s outdoor growing season is unfortunately coming to an end. But that doesn’t mean you have to stop growing food or enjoying local produce! Join Alaska Seeds of Change, popping up at Blue Market on September 25 and 26th; and learn how this program grows indoors year-round, helping local youth develop vocational skills while growing fresh food for Alaska in a hydroponic farm. You’ll even have the chance to make your own mini-grow bottle to take home. #bluemarketak #locallygrown #seedsofchange🌱 #hydroponics #alaskafood

Welcome to Mat-Su Farm Co-Op!!!
Here's a little bit on how we do things....
We’ve had overwhelming response to our local meat boxes from our community and look forward to adding more options to boxes in the future! For us to move boxes most efficiently, we use a drop point system across south central Alaska.
"Drop Points" are locations we stop on our normal delivery route for our retail and wholesale customers. Our schedule is tight, spending only 15 minutes in each location. We strive to make deliveries short and sweet, just hand off your prepaid order and get back on the road.
All ordering is processed through the website, Www.matsufarmcoop.com. Our weekly order cycle closes every Thursday at NOON for Friday/Sunday deliveries.
The following is the drop point information for our weekly delivery cycle:
MAT-SU: Sunday...
Palmer Carrs 12PM.......Meet us there and grab your box!
Small lot area near the Palmer/Wasilla Highway between the entrance and exits.
Wasilla Carrs 1PM........Meet us there and grab your box!
End of Row C next the Parks Hwy
ANCHORAGE: Friday…
Blue Market, Mid-Town, 1-6pm DROP POINT, 1406 W. 31st Avenue, Anchorage. We will text you directly when the drop has been made.
RiGeneration, Eagle River, 2PM-6PM DROP POINT, 12812 Old Glenn Highway. We will text you directly when the drop has been made.
Orders are held for customers inside the store at DROP POINTS
If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, please let me know…we LOVE feedback from our customers.
Thank you for choosing to buy local!!! ♥️
Ebb and flow; give and take. Donation needs: small mouth jar lids (not the rings) for our lonely sanitized jar and old wool sweaters to pass on to one of our vendors to repurpose. Moving or shipping needs? We have boxes and compostable packing peanuts and yes (gasp!) even bubble wrap to give you! We strive to be plastic free and transparent but sometimes we get this recirculated packaging in our deliveries. Let’s get it back into circulation! #bluemarketak #repurpose #passonpackaging #sweaterweather #runonjarlids
