When Every Second Counts: How Alaskans Get Emergency Alerts
Join the UAF Alaska Center for Climate Assessment and Preparedness for this month’s ACCAP webinar to learn how emergency alerts are issued, how to access them, and what is being done to keep Alaskans informed and safe. A panel of experts from local, state, and federal agencies will share their perspectives. Emergencies in Alaska can happen quickly, including wildfires, floods, tsunamis, and severe weather. Recent events such as the Texas floods highlight the importance of timely alerts. Many Alaskans still wonder how to sign up, where alerts come from, and which sources to trust.

Zines for Change Workshop
Join ORCA POD Peer Prevention Educators for this Zine Workshop. Learn to create your own zines, small booklets between 8 and 32 pages long often illustrated with imagery and poetry, etc. Dating back to the 19th century, these charming folded-paper books, called chapbooks were inspired by popular culture and were perfect for mixing visual art and written texts. In the 1970's the zine was coopted by the young punk movement as a way to disseminate information on various punk bands and other information including poetry and photocopy imagery. In this workshop, we will write from prompts and exercises to produce fragments of poetry and prose then blend with stamping, drawing, painting, and collage techniques to make our own individual zines sewn by machine, hand or stapled. Join us to think big in a small way.

Palmer: Selling Homemade Foods
Learn about the significant changes the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation made to the cottage food industry. The rules were significantly expanded in 2024 and are now known as the Homemade Food Exemption.
Sarah Lewis, UAF Cooperative Extension Service health, home and family development agent, will explain the changes. If you have a Homemade Foods business, would like to start one, or might sell homemade foods through your market, knowledge of the new rules will help ensure you're in compliance. It's important to understand the risks and opportunities associated with selling either potentially harmful or nonpotentially harmful foods from a home-based business. There will be time for questions following the presentation.
The workshop will meet in-person in Room 208 of Kerttula Hall at the Matanuska Experiment Farm and Extension Center, 1509 S. Georgeson Drive, Palmer or via Zoom.

SoBear's Lounge-Halloween Themed--"AtmosFEAR" Video Board Game Night
Hey ghouls and goblins!
Get ready for some hauntingly good fun at the next SoBear’s Lounge with the world’s first video board game: ATMOSFEAR!

Zines for Change Workshop with ORCA POD
Join ORCA POD Peer Prevention Educators for this Zine Workshop. Learn to create your own zines, small booklets between 8 and 32 pages long often illustrated with imagery and poetry, etc. Dating back to the 19th century, these charming folded-paper books, called chapbooks were inspired by popular culture and were perfect for mixing visual art and written texts. In the 1970's the zine was coopted by the young punk movement as a way to disseminate information on various punk bands and other information including poetry and photocopy imagery. In this workshop, we will write from prompts and exercises to produce fragments of poetry and prose then blend with stamping, drawing, painting, and collage techniques to make our own individual zines sewn by machine, hand or stapled. Join us to think big in a small way.

Webinar: Using Kelp as Fertilizer
Erin Oliver, a postdoctoral researcher with Washington State University and a USDA Climate Hub Fellow for Alaska Agriculture stationed in Palmer, will discuss lab and field studies conducted at Matanuska Experiment Farm to investigate the effects of kelp on soil health and crop production in a free webinar.

Studies have found that the benefits of kelp vary by soil type and amendment rates, but little research has been done in Alaska on this subject.
The goal of this project is to determine the best method for applying kelp to Alaska soils. This talk will discuss both lab and field studies…
