Practical Fruit Tree Pruning Workshop

This workshop is now full, however we have opened a duplicate course on Sunday 2 July.  Click here for the 2 July course.

Learn about fruit trees and how to prune them for abundant crops in this practical workshop. Winter is a good time to prune, so come and learn how and then get started on your own trees. We will have some theoretical introduction to apple, pear, plum, feijoa and avocado tree pruning, followed by a demonstration and then it’s your turn. Please bring sharpened secateurs, loppers, a saw and stepladder if you have them.

Your tutor is Gisella Warmenhoven, a trained landscaper and professional tree pruner for over 30 years.

“Gisella’s one day workshop is one of the best ways to be introduced to fruit tree pruning. She is an excellent presenter and a patient teacher. You’ll enjoy the day and leave it with the confidence to get started pruning your own fruit trees.”

When: 1 July, 9:45am-3pm  (If this 1 July course fills, we will set up a 2nd workshop on Sunday 2 July.  Send us an email if you would be a starter for the Sunday workshop.)

What to bring: Pruning tools, gloves, step ladder, writing materials, and your lunch.

Cost: $55 per person, the maximum number is 12 to assure quality tutor attention.
