The mission of the Gear Hub is to get more youth and adults outside and active by increasing access to affordable, reliable gear. We accomplish this by taking in donations of used outdoor equipment and bikes and doing full repairs before we resell them at affordable prices.
We are powered by Ketcha Outdoors a year-round non-profit outdoor education organization serving the Southern Maine community. We strive to get children, youth, and families outdoors on our 107 acres of meadows, forests, streams, and wetlands through a wide variety of nature-based programming. The Ketcha Outdoors programs include a summer day camp, Farm and Forest school, barn programming, a ropes/challenge course, and after-school and vacation camps.
