Learn from our expert instructors how to maximize tree health and fruit production by properly tending to your fruit trees this winter! Learn how to maximize tree health and fruit production by identifying and properly removing dead, damaged, and dying wood.
Our expert instructors will go over general pruning techniques, discuss the differences between summer and winter pruning, and lead a hands-on demonstration so that you can learn which cuts to make in the winter to keep your trees healthy and productive. Following the workshop, you can put your newfound skills to use! Feel free to bring a lunch and eat with GFE staff and volunteers, and then at 1pm, join a group of fellow workshop participants and others from the GFE community to prune our orchard trees.
