P&M is bar-none, my favorite greenhouse in Alaska. The have the widest variety of houseplants,…read moretropicals, annuals and perennials of any place in the area. The also have wonderful herbs, veggies, roses, carnivorous plants, a smattering of orchids... they even have banana "trees" and bird of paradise. Their plants are also incredibly healthy and robust. And best of all, their prices are, at a minimum 10% cheaper than anywhere else. In some instances, their prices are as much as 75% cheaper than other places. One of the reasons for that is they are a grower that provides plants to a lot of other retail shops. I think the other reason is because these people are serious plant lovers and really just want to share the joy. The location is a bit of an inconvenience as it's not really near, well, anything... but it's definitely worth it to make a couple trips throughout the year to see what offerings they have. As a person who formerly worked in a greenhouse, I can assure you, it doesn't get any better than this. Love love love, so much love. (Check out my pics, the proof is in the pudding.)

When I moved into my first house, one of my first gifts was an apple tree from FMNN. This summer, FMNN cleared out the tables and my husband and I used the greenhouse for our wedding reception. It was an absolutely beautiful space and there were hanging baskets everywhere. FMNN is a short drive outside of Anchorage and you can't beat the views on the way out. The only downside is that in late July it can be very buggy outside the greenhouse which created a few unexpected wedding day challenges.

The customer service at AK Butcher Supply is TOP NOTCH! Whether you're talking to them at the…read moresportsman show in the spring or in their shop, they're just filled with a ton of quality knowledge and so friendly! If you're into preserving your own harvest, whether it be meat or vegetation, this is a great shop for you. Of course it's mostly geared towards the preservation of meat, but they have so much to offer! I like to just peruse and check things out. Are things cheap there, no, they're not but they're a good quality too. Might you find something cheaper online, quite possibly and most likely at times. They did offer a military discount and I never balk at that!! Keep in mind, locally owned and operated, they can't always offer amazing discounts when they had to pay for shipping and such to get it up here too. We picked up a few items to add to or replace in our preservation repertoire today and we spent just as much time chatting it up with the two kind gentlemen that worked there as we did looking around. Talking techniques and recipes is great in our book!! The only thing I wish they would do is host some classes for making sausages and such; that would be fantastic and I keep telling them that. I know I'm not the only one around here who would attend!!
