Summer pruning workshop
Summer pruning helps to maintain your tree’s shape and to keep it to a reasonable size for netting and harvesting, it’s also a great time to prune stone fruit so they can heal while still in active growth and reduce the chances of disease!
Join us along with Scott Hitchins to learn the how’s and why’s of summer pruning of your stone fruit (peaches, apricots, plums etc) as well as apples, pears, quince, figs and more.
We will also touch on citrus and other fruiting trees that are pruned through the year.
