5 patches across 2 counties, 1 free to enter. The season opens August 21 at Alaska State Fair.
5 of the 5 Alaska patches we track are in Anchorage/Mat-Su, spread across Fairbanks North Star Borough, Matanuska-Susitna Borough. 2 of them run a corn or crop maze, and 2 have farm animals your kids can get close to. 4 have their 2026 dates confirmed on the farm's own site.
Admission runs from $12 a head at Pyrah's Pioneer Peak Farm up to $15 at Reindeer Farm — a real spread, and one worth checking against how long you actually plan to stay. A paid festival only pays for itself if you use it for half a day.
One patch here is free to walk into, which makes it the low-risk option with unpredictable toddlers — you are not out $80 if the visit lasts twenty minutes.
