Quon-eh-to-kot ("great river") is what the local Native Americans called the Connecticut River as it flows between what is now NH and VT. In their honor, Great River Pagans provides a connection to the spiritual teachings of Earth-centered traditions that celebrate the sacred circle of life and instruct us to live in harmony with the rhythms of nature.

We explore the beliefs and practices of the indigenous traditions of the world and their ongoing re-creation today. We celebrate the eight festivals of the wheel of the year with gatherings and rituals. We welcome pagans of all paths; we are eclectic in approach; participants bring their practices and beliefs and offer their gifts to our diverse circle.

We meet in various locations throughout Southwest New Hampshire and Southeast Vermont.

Our ritual celebrations are public. Anyone wishing to assist in their planning and presentation may become Core Circle members. The Core Circle steers the group, being the primary shapers of GRP.
