Breeden Barn Project

With the successful move of the Breeden Barn to MATI's property in the fall of 2007, and with the concerted effort of many helpful volunteers over the summer of 2008, we have nearly completely restored the Breeden Barn. Thank you everyone for your valued help and support!

MATI received a grant from the Rasmuson Foundation to cover the cost of materials needed in restoration. Many, many volunteers are now working on the multiple tasks necessary to ready this new addition to MATI for the public access.

You can help with this restoration effort in two ways. If you'd like to help work on the restoration in 2009, just call MATI (376-1211). All volunteers are welcome. You can also make a direct donation to the Breeden Barn Project and/or purchase raffle tickets in the 2009 raffle.

"Name the Cow" Contest

"Oreo"

Thank you to everyone who participated in MATI's "Name the Cow" contest. Five contest winners each suggested "Oreo" for MATI's replica Holstein cow. Oreo is spending the 2008-2009 winter at the Alaska Creamery building on the Palmer Wasilla Highway.

Oreo will have a permanent residence in the milking parlor of the nearly restored Breeden Barn.
