Hello – we are Gretchen and Finley. A mother-son team behind the National Parks Club.
In 2021 after visiting a number of parks on a 5 week road trip, Finley put forward the idea of visiting all the National Parks and the rest of the family quickly got on board. Over the last few years we’ve beens steadily checking National Parks off our list. As we’ve visited more and more parks, we started looking for an online community for people exploring the parks where we could get information and ask questions and when we couldn’t find something – we decided to create it!
Combining our love of the parks, a passion for travel writing and photography and background as an artist, the National Park Club offers tools, resources, and designs to celebrate our greatest American treasure.
Recently we’ve grown and we are now offering a number of different levels and involvement.
National Park Merchandise
All our National Park merchandise is created and designed by Gretchen and can be ordered through our site on demand. Our designs are original and offer fresh ideas for National Park shirts, bags, and more.
