Anchorage: Birch Tapping Workshop
This workshop will introduce birch "sugaring" and will cover where, when, and how to tap birch trees to collect sap. Birch sap is versatile, and can be drunk straight from the tree, used in place of water for beverages, collected and made into carbonated drinks, beer or wine, or it can be boiled down to make syrup. Learn the process of selecting trees and the tools used to tap and set up a collection system. We will also discuss proper storage, ways to use the sap, and the principles of making birch syrup.
The instructor, Meg Burgett, began a career with the UAF Cooperative Extension Service in 1986 when she was hired as a seasonal IPM technician. That seasonal position lasted 30+ years, and during that time, she worked within the Natural Resource programs as an educator and program manager with a focus on youth education and forest literacy in youth and adults. Retiring in 2016, Meg continues to contribute to the CES forestry program and one of her favorite Extension activities has always been a spring…

Green-up in the Alaska Boreal Forest
Join UAF's Alaska Center for Climate Assessments and Policy for our 6th annual Green-up webinar. Spring in Alaska means important happenings in the boreal forest. Sap starts flowing in birch trees, leading to tapping and the creation of delicious treats. Green-up, when leaves burst forth from Alaska’s deciduous trees, has important implications for the seasonal ecology, society and even meteorology in the state. It is rapidly followed by pollen release, which is a health issue for many Alaskans. Fairbanks has a unique multi-decadal record of green-up dates that’s been used to develop a technique for forecasting green-up and related events in the Interior and more broadly in the boreal forest regions in Alaska. During this webinar, Rick Thoman will review the green-up forecasting tools and will provide a look-ahead at green-up for Spring 2025; Jan Dawe, from One Tree, will demonstrate citizen science-outreach tools for birch tappers and others; and, Susan Harry, from UAF, will review relevant pollen informatio…

Delta Junction: Bear Awareness & Safety
<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">This class teaches bear awareness, encounter prevention and appropriate response scenarios. The class will include hands-on use of bear spray (inert), with directed role-play and practice scenarios, and a multi-media presentation. Inert bear spray is provided.
It will be led by Tim Craig, a career wildlife biologist with BLM and Fish and Wildlife and has had some remarkable bear encounters over the years. This class will help develop your bear spray muscle memory so you are less likely to respond incorrectly in the event of a real bear encounter. The Delta Junction area has bears – and an encounter is likely more “when,” not “if,” so be prepared.
The class will be held at the Delta Career Advancement Center classroom, 1696 N. Clearwater Ave.
Wear clothing and footwear that you don’t mind getting dirty (the spray is oily), and dress in layers as May weather can be unpredictable. There will be a short lunch break. Bring your lunch and hydration. All other materials will be…

Delta Junction: Build a No-Till No-Dig Lasagna Garden
Do you want a low-maintenance, easy-to-develop, no-till garden? Learn how to build a no-till lasagna garden in this hands-on workshop in Delta Junction.
Lasagna gardening is a tried-and-true method for creating a productive garden space on untilled land. Sometimes called a deep mulch garden or sheet composting, it is an excellent way to create a raised bed for perennials or vegetables with or without a box around the edges. This method not only maintains nutrients but improves the soil over time — all without having to clear, dig or weed out that first layer of soil.
