About this event

Facilitated by Madeline Wimmer, University of Minnesota Extension Fruit Production Educator

Have you ever seen a fruit tree bloom but never set fruit? What makes a healthy fruit tree, vine, or shrub? Join us to explore the interconnected approach to perennial fruit cultivation.

We'll discuss Minnesota-suitable crops like apples, grapes, currants, and honeyberries, examining both big-picture climate patterns and small-scale biological connections such as canopy environments and pollination needs. Gain a deeper understanding of what it takes to produce quality fruit in diverse settings and leave with practical insights to apply in your orchard, farm, or backyard garden.

This project is in partnership with the UMN Extension Southwest Regional Sustainable Development Partnership: Community-University partnerships for sustainability, serving Southwest Minnesota
