From the Land Up: Alaska's Homestead Revival Tandy Hogate on The Must Read Alaska Show

We joined Sonia from Must Read Alaska Show as she talks with Tandy Hogate about Alaska’s growing homestead revival.

In “From the Land Up: Alaska’s Homestead Revival,” Tandy shares why more Alaskans are turning back to gardening, raising animals, preserving food, and learning practical skills that build self-reliance. With Alaska importing most of its food and supply chains becoming more uncertain, these skills are becoming more important than ever.

Tandy also gives a preview of the third annual Alaska Homestead Expo and Marketplace happening Memorial Day Weekend, May 22–23, 2026, at the Big Lake Lions Club. This year’s Expo is expanding with a hybrid option that includes livestreamed sessions, full class recordings, and access to a summer series featuring 65+ additional classes — all included with your ticket.
