Green Neighbors has exciting news to share! Last month, our team welcomed Mary Hurley as our new Environmental Programs Technician. This role helps support the Green Neighbors program as well as the Clark County Green Business program. You might actually recognize Mary as she comes to us after working as a waste reduction specialist and recycling educator at Waste Connections of Washington here in Vancouver. There her role specialized in education and outreach to promote waste prevention and recycling to businesses in the Clark County area.
When Mary isn't working, you might find her out traveling with her Border Collie, taking pictures, volunteering for environmental causes, or at the library getting books to "geek out" about all things related to waste reduction, upcycling and sustainable building and food systems. She is also a member of the Clark County Food System Council and loves to support local food and farms.
If you haven't already met, be sure to reach out and connect with Mary either via email at maryann.hurley@clark.wa.gov, or chat with her in person if you see her at one of our events.
