Although its cold and snowy outside, winter is a great time of year for pruning fruiting trees and shrubs. Join us to learn the basics of winter pruning and maintenance of common fruits and nuts. This will include a wholistic view of the tree and will enable us to map out a plan for deciding on branch removal and desired tree shape that would make for the best outcome. Together we will practice basic techniques on the proper way to make cuts and  manage trees and shrubs of different heights and growth patterns. We’ll go over the proper tools needed and their maintenance as well as sanitary practices in the orchard.

Dress to be outside the whole time you are with us. Please check the weather.
