Alaska's Wild Wonders: WILD FOODS

Learn, Harvest & Share

Wild foods are plants and animals that are not intentionally grown by humans.

Here is a chance to play with food — specifically with wild foods found in Alaska. Here's how it works...

Choose an image of a food from the collection of photos. Use your mouse to click and drag one of the hexagons over to the playing board of empty hexagons. Release your mouse. This is where the hexagon will stay until you move it again. Give it a try!
