The Anchorage VA Clinic will be hosting a Plant Swap on Wednesday, June 3, from 11:00 a.m. – 1 p.m.

This is an opportunity for employees and Veterans to share resources about connecting with our food, growing plants in Alaska, and supporting healthy living.

This event will kick off the VA gardening season, and we hope it inspires others to try new things. Please come donate or receive free seeds, transplants, flowers, or small gardening tools for your personal use.

The meeting location is the back entrance of the Clinic near the plant boxes.
