Erik Schellenberg will describe and demonstrate restorative pruning techniques to bring older fruit trees back into production and health. Erik brings his scientific background to restoring large old apple trees. During the workshop we will cover basics of pruning, restorative pruning methods, discuss grafting and top-working, and the burning need to diversify our food producing tree plantings. Come dressed warmly and with your questions ready.
Erik has used the techniques he will share on many older apple, pear, peach, and plum trees through the years. Erik's own farm has a small commercial orchard of predominantly American persimmon and pawpaw trees.
Masks are recommended for entry inside the Education Center during programs.
