For some who live here, this place is more than a typical neighborhood. In Agritopia’s “kid pod,” a cluster of families with 23 kids between them, parents let the young ones roam freely, knowing at least one guardian will always be looking out for them. The rest of the parents make dinner or plan a date night. Just across the street, a peach and citrus orchard sways in the breeze, occasionally wafting the smells of fruit into front yards.Maria Padron lives in the “kid pod” with her husband and two children. She loves living in Agritopia for the sense of camaraderie with her neighbors.

She wishes it had stayed in the family, but it’s a vineyard now.

Asked whether she would have wanted her grandfather’s land to become an agrihood, she says maybe — if it was done right.“There’s something obviously beautiful here that’s going on, but there is some grief there too, if you’ve watched this land be a certain thing and then it changes within an instant,” Padron said.

Anchorage police posted the surveillance video on social media in hopes it would lead to the suspect’s identity. So far, no viable tips have come in, spokesperson Christopher Barraza said in an email.Star’s pneumonia worsened, and a cough leads Whitehead to believe Star ate something harmful, perhaps while loose.

The pneumonia is likely due to him accidentally inhaling the chronic reflux or regurgitation of the contents in the largest of the reindeers’ four stomachs, Holland said. The sprays possibly also contributed.It’s possible there’s a blockage, but the largest stomach of a reindeer is quite big and not easily obstructed, Holland said. However, ingested plastic bags causing chronic weight loss and indigestion problems are the most common foreign objects she’s seen in reindeer.
