Official State Soil: Tanana
July 10th

When undisturbed, Tanana soils support plants adapted to very wet soils and are permanently frozen below a depth of 50 inches. If wildfire or plowing disturbs the vegetation, these soils will warm up and become drier. Hay, grains, and vegetables thrive in Tanana soils.
