About Chugach Farm
Allie spent her early years in Ohio on her parent’s farm shoveling manure, playing in the dirt, and observing her mother put-up more tomatoes than anyone could eat in a lifetime. These formative years were not easy to wash off and helped to nurture her intuitive passion for self-sufficiency. At 18 years of age, Allie migrated to Alaska to attempt a winter ascent of Mt. Marcus Baker. She found more than mountains to climb. In addition to endless epic mountains, she saw the potential to build a homestead, grow food, and live off-grid. Knowing she would soon return to Alaska permanently, Allie finished up her Bachelor of Arts Degree majored in sustainable agriculture, herbal medicine, alternative energy and sustainable architecture at Evergreen State College. All of Allie’s adult life has been spent in the outdoors as a mountain guide, avalanche forecaster, and homesteader. She naturally settled in the quiet town of Chickaloon in 2000, nested between the beautiful Talkeetna and Chugach Mountains, nurtured by the rapids of the Matanuska and Chickaloon Rivers, located at the end of a beaten path deep in the heart of the Matanuska Valley, Alaska. Since purchasing land in Alaska in 2002, Allie has put her heart, soul, blood and many tears into creating a small scale, off-grid homestead and farm. In 2010, Allie began to produce on a larger scale by committing to farming, nutrition, making ferments, and putting up food “full time.” Having been diagnosed with celiac disease in her mid-20’s, Allie was motivated to become an herbalist and commit to a 100% local and nutrient dense diet of wild game, farm raised meat, good local fat, ferments, root veggies, raw goat milk, and eggs. She is proud of not having to rely on the grocery for over 20+ years. Allie is constantly improving her fermentation recipes and looking for any excuse to run her sawmill. Allie melds her education, strong work ethic, love for the soil and passion for herbal medicine and a nutrient-dense diet, into a full-time farm-life obsession. Chugach Farm has been in full operation since 2010, selling their goods at farmer’s markets, restaurants, CSAs, fermentation shares, and direct marketing through the Chugach Farm online store.
