The ACEP-produced documentary “Alaska Grown” was showcased recently at the Denali Film Festival in Denali. The event, held at the Denali Education Center, featured the winning films from the 2020 and 2021 festivals, in addition to filmmaker talk-back sessions.
“Alaska Grown” filmmaker Amanda Byrd hosted a booth featuring locally grown vegetables and flowers, including peonies, which have become one of Alaska’s largest agriculture exports.
The documentary was generously funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Risk Management and AgriLogic Consulting.
