GDG Hands-on Workshop: Summer Fruit Tree Pruning – San Jose

Do you have fruit trees you’d like to keep small so you don’t have to climb ladders? Or fruit trees you’d like to keep small because you don’t have enough space for large trees? Or do you have apricot or cherry trees that should be pruned outside of winter months because of a disease that gets transmitted during wet weather? Come to a summer pruning workshop to learn why you might want to prune fruit trees while they still have all their leaves! There will be time for discussion and time to practice.

Wear sturdy shoes for walking around the orchard. Bring gloves, clippers, and loppers if you have them. The nearest parking is on Seymour (near the corner of Walnut), or you can park at the Rotary Play Garden (on Coleman) and walk in. Please arrive early so you can park and walk into the orchard.
