The Capitol Reef Natural History Association (CRNHA) is a non-profit cooperating association founded in 1963 to support historical, cultural, scientific, interpretive, and educational activities at Capitol Reef National Park. They operate the visitor center bookstore, which carries a variety of maps, books, posters, and postcards. The bookstore is open during visitor center open hours. They also operates a sales outlet at the historic Gifford House Store and Museum during the summer season, offering unique handmade pioneer-era items that reflect the park's cultural heritage, as well as locally-baked fruit pies and homemade ice cream.
Funding from the CRNHA supports internships, special events, education outreach, volunteer programs, and scientific research.
