The Anchorage Weekender: Berry picking, local produce and 6 more local events

You could always go to the Alaska State Fair this weekend, but what about the hometown hermits?

The Anchorage Weekender rounded up eight things to do in and around the city that don’t include the State Fair, from volunteering and berry picking to markets and live music.

1. Little Explorers hike

Friday, 11 a.m., Eagle River Nature Center

Take your little one on a guided hike around the Rodak trail at their pace and explore the abundant sights and sounds of the Eagle River Nature Center. This adventure is best suited to babies and kids up to 6, accompanied by an adult. The older kiddos are invited too, but not the dog. Check in at the Nature Center building by 11 a.m. There is no registration required for this free event.

2. Music on the Patio: Solar
