The Pajarito Envirnomental Education Center is located at 3540 Orange Street, Los Alamos, New Mexico.
The Pajarito Environmental Education Center is a non-profit organization that provides opportunities for residents and visitors to discover the rich natural and cultural history of the Jemez Mountains region.
PEEC maintains a library of several hundred books. Two comfortable reading areas are available for browsing. PEEC members may check out books for reading at home.
PEEC's home in Los Alamos is uniquely perched between the sun drenched Rio Grande Valley and the deep green coolness of the Jemez Mountains. Low and high elevation ecosystems overlap and result in rich diversity and many opportunities for exploratory learning.
