permaculture

[joao pedro goncalves <joaovox@gmail.com>]

Dear Rhonda,

Here is a feedback to your question.

Helena Reis did a research on this topic, maybe she will be able to share
her findings.

For now, I just give you an idea of quantity - the number of sites, PC
courses / names of PC teachers active in Portugal.

What else are you all curious about?

Portugal has about 10 000 000 people.
