Has PFI ever done an event about (insert topic here)?

By Liz Kolbe

Do you ever begin a thought with “It would be awesome if PFI did an event about… ”

I hope so!

Take the next steps:
1. Find out what we’ve done in the past. Use the search function (it’s that white box in the picture below) on the website to quickly find blog posts, news releases, past field days, farminars, or conference sessions. Some events have recordings or summaries available online.

search

2. If you don’t see what you’re after, or think we should do something again or differently, call or email the office. We’re always game for fresh (and re-freshed) ideas.

As an example of what you might find on the website, below is a list of archived farminars available (to watch for free anytime!) about horticulture. And remember to check out the Fall Farminar Series (winter is coming soon).
