Well, Alaska...
🐋 That is NOT where a whale is supposed to end up.
🏕️ Your future cabin getaway has a new set of rules.
📱 Your court date can now text you.
🛟 Two hunters had a very bad day that ended with a very good rescue.
🐻 And the bears are getting ready to settle an extremely important question:
Who is going to be the fattest? 😂

🐓 Homesteading is not an aesthetic. It is knowing how to do things.
Grow food. Mend clothes. Put up berries. Sharpen tools. Feed people. Make it through winter.
But what does that look like in Alaska today, after the era of free land claims is long over? 🧵🔪🫐🏡
We look at the history, the free-land myth, and the practical Alaska version of homesteading that is still very much alive.

🎡🚨 FAIR WARNING, ALASKA: Your weekend is about to get VERY busy. 😂
Pig races. Pie. Highland Games. Live music. Local vendors. Runners. A wilderness cruise. Community fun. 🐷🥧🏴🏃♀️🛳️
Basically, sitting at home just got a lot harder to justify.

In parts of Alaska, “waiting for help” means waiting for a plane.
Weather, distance, and capacity decide everything.
So what can we actually do to improve it?

Heyyyyy #Fairbanks! It’s #MidnightSun Festival day! Myself and a TON of other very cool vendors are downtown until midnight tonight, along with performers and food trucks, and all kinds of good stuff.
Come on down and say hi, grab a bite to eat, and take home some art!

Couldn’t possibly ask for a more beautiful day for Fairbanks Folk Fest today… I’m baffled as to why that field isn’t absolutely full of people!
Come on down to Ester Community Park, if you’re in the #FairbanksAlaska area, we’ll be here listening to some good music all day!

What’s Up, Alaska? is basically throwing a statewide party and you’re already on the guest list, whether you planned for it or not. From drumming in Juneau to porch concerts in Sitka, Kodiak rock shows, Ketchikan conversations, café book stops, parenting support, and community gatherings that actually matter, the whole state is fully booked and running on pure summer momentum. Pick your chaos responsibly.

🌱 Alaska’s hemp rules are changing… and if you’ve ever thought about growing, selling, or buying local CBD products, this could matter more than you think. One Alaska farm is already pushing the northern limits of hemp production 👀👇

Holy heck, it’s outdoor market season again, ALREADY!
I’m parked here in Golden Heart Plaza until 8pm tonight, for the first Downtown Market of the year (the booth is a little stripped down, thanks to windy weather making my usual layout inadvisable), and I’ll be here for the next three Third Thursdays as well!
Come say hi!

Alaska Underreported ⚠️
What happens when daily life becomes unlivable?
In rural Alaska, it’s already happening: families leaving, clinics stretched, schools doubling as shelters, freezers harder to fill.
And the strain spreads.

National Play Outside Day is the first Saturday of every month, a little reminder to put the screens down, get outside, and just be a kid again 🌿
Zachary, Madison, and Cyrus out there all smiles, loud laughs, and the kind of simple joy that makes you stop and appreciate a good day. #NationalPlayOutsideDay #Alaska #AlaskaLife -
