Summer Pruning
Fruit tree pruning is a task that improves the health of your trees and their ability to produce high quality fruit. There are two main times of year that pruning is typically done. Those are winter and summer. In this workshop you will learn all about the task of summer pruning. Find out when to do it, why to do it, and most importantly, how to do it.
Whether you are looking to control excessive growth and tame the size of your tree, improve the overall structure of your tree, or just guide your tree towards its most productive form and increase fruit bud development, this program is for you.
By attending, you will learn a straightforward approach that will build your confidence in pruning, help you to develop a routine that is easy to perform and direct your trees towards increased productivity.
Speaker: Chris Wayne, owner of Bee Forage Farm, grows apples, cherries, peaches, and pears, along with many other fruits. Having been inspired to start a fruit orchard due to a lack of local organic options, Chris now seeks to help others by showcasing what can be done in a small-scale orchard with practices that are focused on improving the environment.
This program will be held outdoors. Please dress appropriately for the weather.
