City of Waukee recently issued the following announcement.
Holly Holmes just started as the City of Waukee’s first Horticulture Technician.
As more parks and facilities sprouted up in Waukee to serve the growing community, the need for a full-time caretaker followed suit.
Holly now spends her days maintaining parks and City building landscapes for health and beautification.
She has a marketing degree from the University of Iowa, but decided to follow her real passion eight years ago and entered the green industry.
She worked as a field worker and manager for several landscape companies prior to joining the City staff.
Holly and her wife Stephanie enjoy spending time with their daughters and one-year-old granddaughter.
She also has two dogs and a cat. In her free time, Holly enjoys hiking, biking, taking walks, and watching movies and football.
