PAN’s Webinar Series

Continuing…a webinar series hosted by the Permaculture Association of the Northeast (PAN) designed to answer the frequent questions from our members, “What can we do now that we’ve finished our Permaculture Design Certification (PDC) course?” or “What else do I need to know to keep my permaculture skills sharp?”
