Who We Are

Fossil Shack is a family owned and operated business located in Salem Utah. Fossil Shack was founded by the Sorensen Family and has been providing quality fossils to individuals, museums, and educational institutions for decades. Managed by Seth and Rachelle Sorensen, Fossil shack has become the worlds most trusted name in fossils and they want to pass on their passion for collecting.

Their belief is that in providing quality fossils at low prices, they can promote the fossil collecting hobby to other families and instill in others a great respect for life and the amazing story of Mother Earth. Fossil Shack is a strong supporter of the Natural Sciences and works closely with a number of universities, as well as number of museums. They have donated many scientifically significant pieces to local institutions for study, as well as adding to the instructional collections of a number of small colleges and public schools.
