GEOetc LLC

We are an enthusiastic team of Earth science educators that want to see the community better understand the wonders and importance of geoscience.

We acknowledge that we reside and work on the traditional lands of the Pequawket, Abenaki and Wabanaki peoples and support the need for meaningful consultation with all indigenous communities.
