The Green Pioneers are students, volunteers, educators, and recycling pioneers who want to promote innovative efficient ways to

educate and develop recycling awareness techniques that are effective and sustainable. We strive to incorporate green habits into

everyday life in order to create a simple method that will have a true impact on the community with a specific focus in the green

zone in order to support the mission of The Greater New Bedford Regional Refuse District.
