Our focus will be on pear and apple trees, with some reference to plums. You will learn how to prune fruit trees using secateurs to help the ripening process and maximise fruit production in the following year.The workshop will include practical demonstrations and a chance to try out pruning yourself. If you have a pair of sharp bypass (not anvil) secateurs, please bring them along.Places are limited so please book promptly to avoid disappointment.
