Green Hammer is a leading design-build firm based in Portland, Oregon, creating buildings that are healthy for people and the planet. Since 2008, Green Hammer has led the design-build of nearly four-dozen residences and commercial buildings that have received Passive House, LEED, Earth Advantage, Earth Advantage Net-Zero, or Living Building Challenge™ certification. A Certified B Corporation®, Green Hammer strives to be an example of the change it wants to see in the world by offering health benefits, paid time off, professional development and other opportunities for its employees.
Pitchfork Communications began working with Green Hammer in 2013 soon after the firm achieved PHIUS+ passive house certification for the CAPACES Leadership Institute in Woodburn, Oregon, becoming the first educational facility in the West to receive the certification.
Pitchfork helped get the word out about this innovative project and has been providing public relations, social media, and communications planning services ever since. Deliverables include press releases, award applications, blog posts, social media management and a quarterly e-newsletter.
