Who We Serve
Spruce Root serves 13 Southeast communities from Yakutat to Craig and everywhere in between, consisting primarily of entrepreneurs and businesses residing in low-income, rural and historically Native communities. However, we enthusiastically welcome all regional entrepreneurs and it is Spruce Root’s policy not to discriminate.
Spruce Root will work to accommodate individuals with limited English proficiency and provide free language assistance services for accessing our programs and services, as requested. For more information, call Spruce Root at (907) 586-9251 or email grow@spruceroot.org.
