Back by popular demand, we held our 2nd Green Beginnings webinar and garnered another huge response!
Over 60 women joined the conversation as we heard from Lisa Ellis, Kathleen Murphy and Ros McCully. Each with a minimum of 20 years’ experience in landscape design and running their own businesses, they described their experiences, highlighted pitfalls, and suggested practical tips for entering this industry.
We thank them for their generosity in sharing their expertise. Thanks too to our Facilitator, Chloe Thomson.
With such a huge demand for this type of event, we are sure to repeat it in the future.
