Fruit tree pruning workshop
Event Information
Description
Would you like to learn how to prune your own fruit trees? Winter pruning is key to healthy and productive trees. We'll be joined in our orchard by experienced orchardist Chris Pepper. As well as learning by listening to & watching Chris, you'll also try out pruning for yourself in a small group setting, with us on hand to help.
We'll focus on winter pruning of apple & pear trees, look at how to prune soft fruits like gooseberries, explore companion planting for healthy fruit trees & discuss good varieties for growing in the north of Scotland. Price includes lunch and we'll finish the day off with some apple wassailing, followed by a Q&A session with apple cake & mulled apple juice in front of a warm fire!
