Raymond Rebarchek Colony Farm
The Raymond Rebarchek Colony Farm is a historic farm property on Rebarchek Avenue in Palmer, Alaska. It consists of a tract of land granted to Raymond Rebarchek in a 1935 land lottery organized by the Matanuska Valley Colony, a Depression-era agricultural colony project. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978. At that time, the farm complex included ten buildings, including Rebarcheck's original log house, a dairy barn, a well house, a greenhouse, and a chicken house. Only the original farmhouse, silo, and milking parlor are still standing today. The Alaska State Fair purchased the property in 2002 and is contemplating the establishment of a demonstration farm there.
