Geopark Certified Products

Starting in August 2020, the Mt. Apoi Geopark began designating unique regional products that convey the nature, culture, and history of the area as "Mt. Apoi Geopark Certified Products."
These certified products are permitted to use the "Geopark Certified Product" logo, and will be introduced on the geopark website. Let's liven up the area through certified products!
