Summer Fruit Tree Pruning Workshop

Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens

When it comes to basic care and pruning of fruit trees, there are many different techniques, several of which have predictable results. Summer pruning is a great way to increase your fruit and ease winter maintenance. This class will help you to optimize the performance of your fruit trees according to your own needs and the specific environment in which the trees are growing. The spotlight will primarily be on, but not limited to, the summer pruning of fruit tree varieties appropriate to the North Coast climate, specifically apples, pears, and select stone fruits. Learn how the time of year and type of pruning cut can greatly influence the success of your fruit trees. We will cover a complete year’s cycle of tree growth – from the tree’s perspective as well as our own.
