After a winter storm collapsed grow tunnels, a local farm presses on
by Colette Czarnecki | Jan 29, 2026
Dwane Ballou is giving me a tour of his family run small-scale farm, Oceanview Gardens. After the past six years, they are one of a few growers in Wrangell who supply the community with fresh produce and flowers. Our footsteps crunch under the gravel and ice crystals that settled on the ground. We’re looking at four of the farm’s grow tunnels, mostly with torn plastic hanging on the sides and no plastic on top. Dented and disjointed metal keep the structure of one tunnel standing. A couple months ago there was no wreckage, until the snow started falling.
