Have your own fruit tree but not sure how to care for it? Or - Want to plant fruit trees for you and your family to enjoy for many years? Join us to learn about Fruit Tree Pruning in our small orchard with an experienced orchardist to teach and guide for this five hour workshop. There are various ways to prune fruit trees, but the overall goal should be to keep pruning to a minimum. Successful pruning comes through the use of practiced techniques and the understanding of how a tree's biological systems will respond when you apply these techniques to them. This approach allows you to work with intent and to visualize ahead of time a tree's response and its long term development. Among the topics covered: Anatomy and Physiology Variables to consider before planting Principles of Training Young Trees Responses to Various Cuts and Manipulations Pruning Throughout the Life of the Tree Restoring the neglected tree This is a small, hands on workshop which allows us to prune together and evaluate our work as well as address questions you may have about your own trees. Bring your tools, but we will have loaners. $75 per person. RSVP via Facebook event. Link in comments. $50 deposit to hold your spot; $25 payable day of workshop. Mail your check made out to "Jim Moniz" to us here at the farm: 9501 Deer Range Rd Moseley VA 23120 Class size is limited to first 9 people to RSVP. Reserve your spot today! Bring your lunch, water bottle, warm beverage mug, weather appropriate clothes and footwear, and get ready for a fun and educational day at our farm to learn how to care for your own fruit trees!
