Spring Creek Farm is home to Alaska Pacific University's Mat-Su Valley Kellogg Campus, located 45 miles outside of Anchorage in the town of Palmer. The campus is an 800-acre working hay farm that sits at the foot of the Chugach and Talkeetna mountains. Adjacent to the Matanuska and Knik rivers, the mixed woodlands, riparian, high alpine, and agricultural environments provide diverse and rich source-materials for learning and teaching about the natural world and the human-nature relationship.
