WINTER FRUIT TREE CARE 

SAT. 12/10/2021 @ 9:30 - 11:30AM

LIVE ZOOM CLASS
PRESENTER: ANGELA CHANDLER

$20 

Since winter storm Uri, our fruit trees and orchards have been under stress. How is your orchard doing? This class will teach you the basics of fruit tree selection for replacing trees or starting an orchard, planting, care, and maintenance. Fruit trees are wonderful additions to the urban landscape with beautiful flowers, fragrance, and the reward of organically grown fruits. They support pollinators and can provide habitat for birds. We will cover temperate fruit trees, citrus, and the semi-tropical varieties that are appropriate for our area. Participants will receive a month-by-month calendar for fruit tree care - pruning, pest control, harvesting and fertilization. If you don't have enough space, fruit trees can also be grown in containers!
